Contrasting epigenetic dynamics in chromosome arms and pericentromeres during ROS1-induced plant immune memory

Adam Hannan Parker, Peijun Zhang, Kwok Yin Man, Louis Tirot, Stephen A. Rolfe, Lisa M. Smith, Samuel W. Wilkinson, Jurriaan Ton

This study shows that ROS1-induced DNA demethylation leads to distinct epigenetic changes in chromosome arms and pericentromeres during plant immune memory formation and erasure.

Altered Subgenomic RNA Expression in SARS-CoV-2 B.1.1.7 Infections

Matthew D. Parker, Benjamin B. Lindsey, Dhruv R. Shah, Sharon Nienyun Hsu, Alexander James Keeley, David George Partridge, Shay Leary, Alison Cope, Amy State, Katie Johnson, Nasar Ali, Rasha Raghei, Joe Heffer, Darren Smith, Peijun Zhang, , Thushan I. de Silva

The paper shows that B.1.1.7 SARS-CoV-2 lineage has increased subgenomic RNA expression compared to other lineages, with a noncanonical sgRNA near ORF9b showing a 16-fold increase in median expression.
