Annotated Information

Gene Symbol

  • Os03g0798300 <=> MET1a,OsMET1a

Function

  • MET1a, one of two rice MET1 genes encodes a maintenance DNA methyltransferase. [1] [2]
  • Homologous recombination-mediated knock-in targeting of the MET1a gene for a maintenance DNA methyltransferase reproducibly reveals dosage-dependent spatiotemporal gene expression in rice.

Expression

  • MET1a and MET1b, were expressed in actively replicating and dividing cells, and MET1b is more abundantly expressed than is MET1a.

You can also add sub-section(s) at will.
