SWITCH deficient SUCROSE NONFERMENTING (SWI/SNF) class chromatin remodeling
complexes (CRCs) use the energy derived from ATP hydrolysis to facilitate access of proteins …

Nucleosomal acetyltransferase of H4 (NuA4) is an essential transcriptional coactivator in
eukaryotes, but remains poorly characterized in plants. Here, we describe Arabidopsis …

Investigating the process of gamete formation in plants often requires the use of mutants of
selected genes in various genetic backgrounds. For example, analysis of meiotic …

During meiosis, DNA double‐strand breaks undergo interhomolog repair to yield crossovers
between homologous chromosomes. To investigate how interhomolog sequence …

The influence of the histone variant H2A.Z on transcription remains a long-standing
conundrum. Here, by analyzing the actin-related protein6 mutant, which is impaired in H2A.Z …

The frequency and distribution of meiotic crossovers are tightly controlled; however, variation
in this process can be observed both within and between species. Using crosses of two …

Background Histone acetyltransferase complex NuA4 and histone variant exchanging
complex SWR1 are two chromatin modifying complexes which act cooperatively in yeast and …

Polycomb repressive complex (PRC)-mediated gene silencing is vital for cell identity and
development in both the plant and the animal kingdoms. It also modulates responses to stress. …

Despite the identification of clubroot resistance genes in various Brassica crops our understanding
of the genetic basis of immunity to Plasmodiophora brassicae infection in the model …

The main function of the A kinase‐anchoring proteins ( AKAP s) is to target the cyclic AMP‐dependent
protein kinase A ( PKA ) to its cellular substrates through the interaction with its …
