The authors identified regions of active demethylation mediated by DNA glycosylases throughout the entire Arabidopsis genome. Additionally, they also assert that demethylation by DNA glycosylases is required to edit the pattern of DNA methylation within genomes to protect genes from potentially deleterious methylation.

Antisense transcription in the mammalian transcriptome. Science 309 (2005) 1564-1566. The authors demonstrate a global analysis of the mouse transcriptome, which provides evidence that a large proportion of the genome can produce transcripts from both strands (anti-sense gene pairs). Additionally, the researchers find that anti-sense transcripts commonly join neighboring 'genes' into complex loci of linked transcription.

Cell 123 (2005) 1279-1291. This paper describes an over-lapping anti-sense gene pair that generates a region of dsRNA. This dsRNA region initiates a series of siRNA processing steps that ultimately result in the downregulation of P5CDH in response to salt stress. From their results, the authors suggest that anti-sense transcripts can regulate neighboring genes through formation of regions of dsRNA that subsequently recruit various RNA silencing pathways.

Small RNA-mediated chromatin silencing directed to the 3′ region of the Arabidopsis gene encoding the developmental regulator, FLC. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 104 (2007) 3633-3638. The authors report the identification of two smRNAs corresponding to the reverse strand 3′ to the canonical poly(A) site of the gene encoding a repressor of flowering in Arabidopsis, FLOWEING LOCUS C (FLC), using whole genome tiling array data. These smRNAs are required for proper regulation of FLC expression and ultimately flowering time.

PLoS Biol 5 (2007) e129. The authors report identification of regions containing tri-methylation of histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27me3) in the Arabidopsis genome using whole genome tiling arrays. They suggest that H3K27me3 is a major silencing mechanism in plants that regulates an unexpectedly large number of genes, and this silencing pathway is unrelated to others that have been previously identified.

The authors develop a large-scale chromatin immunoprecipitation assay (ChIP-Seq) for the transcription factor neuron-restrictive silencer factor (NRSF; also known as REST, for repressor element-1 silencing transcription factor), and then utilized ultra-high-throughput DNA Solexa 1G sequencing technology to map a genome-wide binding profile for this transcription factor. They find that NRSF binds to 1946 locations within the human genome, including a number of novel genomic locations. Additionally, they use this high-density data to map an extremely accurate consensus recognition sequence for this very important transcription factor.
