ICAR2012

The International Conference on Arabidopsis Research was held in Vienna, Austria July 3-7th 2012. As usual it was jammed packed full of interesting talks. If you missed out or just want to go back over some of the topics covered I have collected together a number of the tweets from the #ICAR2012.

  1. Nuclesome turn over to fast for histone marks to be inherited throughout the cell cycle #ICAR2012 Henikoff
  2. DNA methylation of gene bodies does not cause silencing Zilbermann #ICAR2012
  3. There is a diverse biology of chromatin methylation eg Osterococcus CG gene body methylation of nuclesome linker DNA by Dnmt5 #ICAR2012
  4. H2A.Z enrichment across all genes shows 5' - 3' peaks Zilbermann #ICAR2012
  5. H2A.Z is enriched in the bodies of responsive genes Zilbermann #ICAR2012
  6. 9 diverse families of transposes proliferating in ddm1 mutant Kakutani #ICAR2012
  7. Bursts of retrotransposition reproduced in Arabidopsis. #ICAR2012 bit.ly/O3oaAK
