NCBI Summary
Encodes a DNA glycosylase DEMETER (DME). Responsible for endosperm maternal-allele-specific hypomethylation at the MEDEA (MEA) gene. DME can excise 5-methylcytosine in vitro and when expressed in E. coli. DME establishes MEA imprinting by removing 5-methylcytosine to activate the maternal allele.

UniProt Comments
Transcriptional activator involved in gene imprinting. Catalyzes the release of 5-methylcytosine (5-meC) from DNA by a glycosylase/lyase mechanism. Allows the expression of the maternal copy of the imprinted MEA gene before fertilization, possibly by antagonizing or suppressing DNA methylation on target promoter. Probably acts by nicking the MEA promoter. Required for stable reproducible patterns of floral and vegetative development.
