Remodeling Chromatin in an ARID Environment
Research, The Plant Cell, The Plant Cell: In BriefThe control of gene expression is of fundamental importance for cellular life. In Eukaryotes, linear DNA is wrapped around nucleosomes that constitute a physical barrier to active transcription. Chromatin remodeling complexes modulate the composition, stability and positioning of nucleosomes therefore…
