We explore the role of Polycomb activity and LIKE HETEROCHROMATIN PROTEIN 1 (LHP1) in how plant shade modulates gene expression. With a multidisciplinary approach (that includes an epigenetic mutant screening, nuclei structure analysis, expression and genetic analysis, histone and TF ChIP, protein-protein interaction assays and photobiology analyses) we have found that LHP1 participates at several steps and moments on the shade signaling pathway.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"587\" height=\"478\" src=\"https:\/\/webs.uab.cat\/pleelab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/399\/2023\/04\/shade_epig-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-86\" srcset=\"https:\/\/webs.uab.cat\/pleelab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/399\/2023\/04\/shade_epig-1.jpg 587w, https:\/\/webs.uab.cat\/pleelab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/399\/2023\/04\/shade_epig-1-300x244.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 587px) 100vw, 587px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Current research Epigenetic regulation of light signalling The role of Polycomb activity on plant development is known since long, but its participation in the regulation of genes in response to environmental changes is scarcely described.
