Genome-wide evidence for local DNA methylation spreading from small RNA-targeted sequences in Arabidopsis.

abstract：:Telomerase activity, not detectable in somatic cells but frequently activated during carcinogenesis, confers immortality to tumors. Mechanisms governing expression of the catalytic subunit hTERT, the limiting factor for telomerase activity, still remain unclear. We previously proposed a model in which the binding of t...
