Fig. 7From: Integration of sperm ncRNA-directed DNA methylation and DNA methylation-directed histone retention in epigenetic transgenerational inheritanceDiagram of ncRNA-directed DNA methylation and DNA methylation-directed histone retention. The red dot identifies DNA methylation, green histone the nucleosome with modifications in histone tails indicated. The ncRNA association with cofactors and DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) promoting DNA methylation (red dot) for RNA-directed DNA methylation. The DNA methylation (red dot) association with chromatin remodeling proteins (CRP) to promote histone retention is indicatedBack to article page
