Nucleosome positioning study of Arabidopsis er/erl1/erl2 mutant using MNase-seq approach
The members of ERECTA family (ERf) leucine-rich receptor like kinases (ERECTA, ERECTA-LIKE1, ERECTA-LIKE2) are involved in various developmental processes and hormonal regulation. In this experiment we showed that inactivation of all three ER's causes wide range of transcriptional changes affecting developmental, hormonal and metabolic processes. Based on our genome-wide nucleosome occupancy and positioning data and other experiments we concluded that ERf's kinases are involved in chomatin organization through modulation their plasticity.
