Have you ever wondered how the epigenome is modified during the transition from seed to seedling? Here, we show that water uptake by Arabidopsis seeds triggers the eviction of the H2B variant H2B.8, thereby revealing replication-independent chromatin reprogramming. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Replication-independent eviction of the histone variant H2B.8 reveals chromatin reprogramming during seed imbibition - Nature Communications

The transition from seed to seedling requires chromatin reprogramming. By studying the histone variant H2B.8, the authors show that it organizes silent chromatin in dry seeds and reveal that water upt...

Today I traveled from Clermont-Ferrand (France) to Coxyde (Belgium, 22.000 inhabitants). 9h, 5 trains, 2 metros, 1 bus. Everything on time !!Public transportation is wonderful (when it works 😉).

Special Issue: Epigenetic Plasticity
Cover image: This cover design features an octopus in a glass jar, symbolizing chromatin and the nucleus. The artwork is rendered in the Ukiyo-e (浮世絵) style. The ancient Chinese characters, written in cursive script (草書), represent ‘the dynamic regulation of chromatin’. The Yang seal (朱文) in seal script (篆書) signifies ‘chromatin’; the Yin seal (白文) signifies ‘nucleus’ (credit: Dr. Yihan Dong).

📝 SPECIAL ISSUE EDITORIAL 📝 🧬 Epigenetics 🧬 🔎 Guest editors Catoni, Lechon & Probst dive into expert views, reviews, and original research exploring how plant epigenetics integrates developmental & environmental signals 🌱 🔗 doi.org/10.1093/jxb/... #PlantScience 🧪 @alineprobst.bsky.social

Box 1 The organization of genomic DNA into chromatin permits a dynamic regulation of the gene expression programme. Environmental and developmental signals that need to translate into an altered gene expression programme may elicit changes at the level of chromatin organization including the methylation of cytosines in the DNA molecule, the incorporation of specific histone variants into the nucleosome, and the setting of histone post-translational modifications. Together these different layers of epigenetic information allow the control of genome plasticity (e.g. by controlling mobile genetic elements), and permit the establishment of transient or heritable gene expression states to orchestrate developmental programmes and stress responses. The development of tools including cytidine analogues or epigenome editing provides the opportunity to artificially interfere with epigenetic regulation and to investigate chromatin-based epigenetic mechanisms.
