Production and processing of siRNA precursor transcripts from the highly repetitive maize genome. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2009 Mutations affecting the maintenance of heritable epigenetic states in maize identify multiple RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) factors including RMR1, a novel member of a plant-specific clade of Snf2-related proteins.

The ability to form homodimers is essential for RDM1 to function in RNA-directed DNA methylation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 RDM1 (RNA-DIRECTED DNA METHYLATION1) is a small plant-specific protein required for RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM). RDM1 interacts with RNA polymerase II (Pol II), ARGONAUTE4 (AGO4), and the de novo DNA methyltransferase DOMAINS REARRANGED ...

Endogenous RNA-Directed DNA Polymerase Activity in Uninfected Chicken Embryos [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1972 Early chicken embryos that are either positive or negative for group-specific antigens of avian leukosis viruses contained endogenous RNA-directed DNA polymerase activity. This endogenous DNA polymerase activity was not increased after mixture of soluble DNA polymerases isolated from chicken embryos with disrupted chicken embryo cells.

Arabidopsis C-terminal domain phosphatase-like 1 functions in miRNA accumulation and DNA methylation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Arabidopsis CTD-PHOSPHATASE-LIKE 1 (CPL1) is a protein phosphatase that can dephosphorylate RNA polymerase II C-terminal domain (CTD). Unlike typical CTD-phosphatases, CPL1 contains a double-stranded (ds) RNA-binding motif (dsRBM) and has been implicated

Morphological and Molecular Characterization of Pseudocercospora chionanthi-retusi Causing Leaf Spot on Chionanthus retusus in Korea [PDF]
Research in Plant Disease, 2022 Leaves of Chionanthus retusus were found to be damaged by leaf spot disease associated with a fungus in Iksan, Korea. Leaf spots were angular to irregular, vein-limited, scattered, 1–8 mm diameter, brownish-gray to dark brown when dry, with heavy ...

Co-targeting RNA Polymerases IV and V Promotes Efficient De Novo DNA Methylation in Arabidopsis. [PDF]
, 2019 The RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) pathway in plants controls gene expression via cytosine DNA methylation. The ability to manipulate RdDM would shed light on the mechanisms and applications of DNA methylation to control gene expression.

Heterochromatic siRNAs and DDM1 independently silence aberrant 5S rDNA transcripts in Arabidopsis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 5S ribosomal RNA gene repeats are arranged in heterochromatic arrays (5S rDNA) situated near the centromeres of Arabidopsis chromosomes. The chromatin remodeling factor DDM1 is known to maintain 5S rDNA methylation patterns while silencing transcription ...

Genomic analysis of Poxviridae and exploring qualified gene sequences for phylogenetics
Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2021 The members of the Poxviridae family are globally distributed all over the world and can cause infectious diseases. Although genome sequences are publicly available for representative isolates of all genera, studies on the criteria for genome-based ...

Transcription in vitro of ø29 DNA and EcoRI fragments by Bacillus subtilis RNA polymerase [PDF]
, 1976 EcoRI fragments A, B and C produced from linear φ29 DNA, but not D or E fragments, are transcribed by purified Bacillus subtilis RNA polymerase. The transcription of fragments A and C is initiated preferentially with GTP and to a lesser extent with ATP ...

RNA-directed DNA polymerase from particles released by normal goose cells [PDF]
Journal of Virology, 1979 Cells from a goose embryo were shown to release particle-associated RNA-directed DNA polymerase and RNase H activities that required the presence of Nonidet P-40 for detection. The particles were not infectious and did not have endogenous DNA synthesis.
