Chromatin dynamics in plants

<br/><br/> Recent studies in yeast, animals and plants have provided major breakthroughs in unraveling the molecular mechanism of higherorder gene regulation. In conjunction with the DNA code, proteins that are involved in chromatin remodeling, histone modification and epigenetic imprinting form a large network of interactions that control the nuclear programming of cell identity. New insight into how chromatin conformations are regulated in plants sheds light on the relationships between chromosome function, cell differentiation and developmental patterns.
