Abstract
The SET-2 /SET1 histone H3K4 methyltransferase and RNAi pathway components are required to maintain fertility across generations in C. elegans . SET-2 preserves the germline transcriptional program transgenerationally, and RNAi pathways rely on small RNAs to establish and maintain transgenerational gene silencing. We investigated whether the functionality of RNAi-induced transgenerational silencing and the composition of pools of endogenous small RNA are affected by the absence of SET-2 . Our results suggest that defects in RNAi pathways are not responsible for the transcriptional misregulation observed in the absence of SET-2 .
