Beyond the Primary Structure of Nucleic Acids: Potential Roles of Epigenetics and Noncanonical Structures in the Regulations of Plant Growth and Stress Responses
Original language description
Epigenetics deals with changes in gene expression that are not caused by modifications in the primary sequence of nucleic acids. These changes beyond primary structures of nucleic acids not only include DNA/RNA methylation, but also other reversible conversions, together with histone modifications or RNA interference. In addition, under particular conditions (such as specific ion concentrations or protein-induced stabilization), the right-handed double-stranded DNA helix (B-DNA) can form noncanonical structures commonly described as “non-BDNA” structures. These structures comprise, for example, cruciform, i-motifs, triplexes, and G-quadruplexes. Their formation often leads to significant differences in replication and transcription rates. Noncanonical RNA structures have also been documented to play important roles in translation regulation and the biology of noncoding RNAs. In human and animal studies, the frequency and dynamics of noncanonical DNA and RNA structures are intensively investigated, especially in the field of cancer research and neurodegenerative diseases. In contrast, noncanonical DNA and RNA structures in plants have been on the fringes of interest for a long time and only a few studies deal with their formation, regulation, and physiological importance for plant stress responses. Herein, we present a review focused on the main fields of epigenetics in plants and their possible roles in stress responses and signaling, with special attention dedicated to noncanonical DNA and RNA structures.
