Transposon age and non-CG methylation

RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) is thought to silence newly inserted transposable elements (TEs) with RNA-independent mechanisms becoming more prominent as TEs age. Here, the authors show that RdDM continues to silence the oldest intact distal TEs in tomato and Arabidopsis suggesting a second, l...

Transposon age and non-CG methylation
description RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) is thought to silence newly inserted transposable elements (TEs) with RNA-independent mechanisms becoming more prominent as TEs age. Here, the authors show that RdDM continues to silence the oldest intact distal TEs in tomato and Arabidopsis suggesting a second, later phase of RdDM.
