Abstract

This entry represents a group of plant proteins, including MOM1 from Arabidopsis. MOM1 is involved in transcriptional gene silencing (TGS) [ 1 ]. It may transduce RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) signals to repressive histone modification [ 2 ].


1. MOM1 and Pol-IV/V interactions regulate the intensity and specificity of transcriptional gene silencing. EMBO J. 29, 340-51
2. Locus-specific dependency of endogenous silent loci on MOM1 and non-CG methylation in Arabidopsis thaliana. Plant Signal Behav 5, 724-6
