Natural depletion of histone H1 in sex cells causes DNA demethylation, heterochromatin decondensation and transposon activation
Transposable elements (TEs), the movement of which can damage the genome, are epigenetically silenced in eukaryotes. Intriguingly, TEs are activated in the sperm companion cell – vegetative cell (VC) – of the flowering plant Arabidopsis thaliana. However, the extent and mechanism of this activation...
