Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) HISTONE DEACETYLASE 6 (HDA6) and HISTONE DEMETHYLASES LSD-LIKE 1 (LDL1) and LDL2 synergistically regulate the expression of long non-coding RNAs associated with H3Ac and H3K4me2. The underlying mechanisms of such highly coordinated interactions among genetic and epigenetic factors contributing to this collaborative regulation remain largely unclear.
