Epigenetic memory is governed by an effector recruitment specificity toggle in Heterochromatin Protein 1 [PDF]
HP1 proteins are essential for establishing and maintaining transcriptionally silent heterochromatin. They dimerize, forming a binding interface to recruit diverse chromatin-associated factors.

Discovery of Potent Peptidomimetic Antagonists for Heterochromatin Protein 1 Family Proteins [PDF]
The heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) sub-family of CBX chromodomains are responsible for the recognition of histone H3 lysine 9 tri-methyl (H3K9me3)-marked nucleosomal substrates through binding of the N-terminal chromodomain. These HP1 proteins, namely, CBX1 (HP1β), CBX3 (HP1γ), and CBX5 (HP1α), are commonly associated with regions of pericentric ...

Characterization of a Novel Heterochromatin Protein 1 Homolog “HP1c” in the Silkworm, Bombyx mori [PDF]
Heterochromatin protein 1 plays an important role in chromatin structure and gene expression regulation. Three HP1 genes have been found in Homo sapiens, and five HP1 genes have been reported in Drosophila melanogaster. On the other hand, in Bombyx mori,

TORC2 inactivation promotes heterochromatin formation in rDNA and prolongs viability of quiescent fission yeast cells [PDF]
A large amount of the energy produced by glucose is consumed in the biogenesis of ribosomes, the cellular machinery for protein synthesis. Recent studies suggest that a low-calorie diet and the suppression of ribosome biogenesis can extend lifespan ...
