25、mple is vernalization,the process by which flowering is promoted as plants sense exposure to the cold temperatures of winter.A requirement for vernalization is an adaptive trait that helps prevent flowering before winter and permits flowering in the favorable conditions of spring.In Arabidopsis and

26、cereals,vernalization results in the suppression of genes that repress flowering.We describe recent progress in understanding the molecular basis of this suppression.In Arabidopsis,vernalization involves the recruitment of chromatin-modifying plexes to a clade of flowering repressors that are silenc

28、C is actively expressed.The plexes that maintain this active chromatin conformation include the PAF plex,which methylates histone 3 tails at lysine 4 and 36(H3K4triMe and H3K36triMe),a SWR1-like plex,which deposits a histone 2A variant in the nucleosomes of FLC chromatin,and H2B ubiquitinases like H

29、UB1 and HUB2 that ubiquitinate histone 2B tails(H2Bub1).Although FLC is in an active state,there are repressive plexes present such as Polyb Repression Complex 2 and some degree of lysine 27 methylation of histone 3(H3K27triMea repressive modification)(b)During cold exposure,FLC repression is initia

30、ted.VIN3 is induced,VIN3 and VIL1/VRN5 associate with the Polyb plex,the density of repressive chromatin modifications such as lysine 27 methylation of histone 3 increases,and repressors such as LIKE HETEROCHROMATIN PROTEIN 1(LHP1)assemble on FLC chromatin.(c)As vernalization proceeds,the density of

31、 repressive modifications,particularly H3K27triMe and lysine 9 methylation of histone 3 H3K9triMe;mediated by an unknown H3K9 methyltransferase(HMTase)increases.(d)Eventually,a mitotically stable state of repression that no longer requires VIN3 is achieved.This mitotically stable state is likely to
