Epigenetic regulation of myogenic gene expression by heterochromatin protein 1 alpha. [PDF]
Heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) is an essential heterochromatin-associated protein typically involved in the epigenetic regulation of gene silencing. However, recent reports have demonstrated that HP1 can also activate gene expression in certain contexts

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,

The Heterochromatin protein 1 is a regulator in RNA splicing precision deficient in ulcerative colitis. [PDF]
This study reports reduced expression of the chromatin and splicing regulator HP1γ in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and shows that HP1γ protects against pervasive RNA splicing leading to toxic mRNA products detected in IBD, like progerin.

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.
