Abstract

DECREASE IN DNA METHYLATION1 (DDM1) is a chromatin remodeling protein required for maintenance of cytosine and histone H3K9 methylation in heterochromatin regions in the genome of Arabidopsis thaliana (Gendrel et al., 2002). A ddm1 mutant also increases the rate of meiotic recombination in euchromatic but not heterochromatic regions of A. thaliana (Melamed-Bessudo and Levy, 2012), and changes the state of cytosine methylation of a gene flanked by a LINE element located in a region of euchromatin (Saze and Kakutani, 2007).
