Chromatin remodeling of histone H3 variants by DDM1 underlies epigenetic inheritance of DNA methylation

Nucleosomes block access to DNA methyltransferase, unless they are remodeled by DECREASE in DNA METHYLATION 1 (DDM1/Lsh/HELLS), a Snf2-like master regulator of epigenetic inheritance. We show that DDM1 promotes replacement of histone variant H3.3 by …

Asterix/Gtsf1 links tRNAs and piRNA silencing of retrotransposons

The Piwi-interacting RNA (piRNA) pathway safeguards genomic integrity by silencing transposable elements (transposons) in the germline. While Piwi is the central piRNA factor, others including Asterix/Gtsf1 have also been demonstrated to be critical …
