Molecular Characterization of the mop2, a Gene Required for Epigenetic Silencing

The mop2 gene is required for epigenetic silencing; it was originally defined as a mutation, Mop2-1, which when dominant prevented paramutation at b1. Paramutation is an allele communication that causes a mitotically and meiotically heritable change in gene expression. Mop2-1 was subsequently sho...
