The MOM1 complex recruits the RdDM machinery via MORC6 to establish de novo DNA methylation
Abstract MORPHEUS’ MOLECULE1 (MOM1) is an Arabidopsis factor previously shown to mediate transcriptional silencing independent of major DNA methylation changes. Here we find that MOM1 localizes with sites of RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM). Tethering MOM1 with an artificial zinc finger to an unm...
