Влияние кольцевых РНК на механизм метилирования гистонов еще не выявлено. Поэтому целью данной работы был поиск и анализ кольцевых РНК расположенных в локусах генов гистоновых деметилаз у растений Arabidopsis thaliana, Glycine max, Solanum lycopersicum, Triticum aestivum и Zea mays. Проведенные и планируемые исследования влияния кольцевых молекул РНК на уровень деметилирования H3K27me позволят разработать новый механизм регулирования роста, развития и повышения устойчивости сельскохозяйственных растений к стрессовым факторам.

The influence of circular RNAs on the mechanism of histone methylation has not yet been revealed. Therefore, the aim of this work was to search for and analyze circular RNAs located in the loci of histone demethylase genes in Arabidopsis thaliana, Glycine max, Solanum lycopersicum, Triticum aestivum, and Zea mays plants. The conducted and planned studies of the influence of RNA ring molecules on the level of H3K27me demethylation will allow us to develop a new mechanism to regulate growth, development and increase the resistance of agricultural plants to stress factors.
