Domains of Heterochromatin Protein 1 Required forDrosophila melanogasterHeterochromatin Spreading [PDF]
AbstractCentric regions of eukaryotic genomes are packaged into heterochromatin, which possesses the ability to spread along the chromosome and silence gene expression. The process of spreading has been challenging to study at the molecular level due to repetitious sequences within centric regions. A heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) tethering system was

C. elegans orthologs MUT-7/CeWRN-1 of Werner syndrome protein regulate neuronal plasticity
Caenorhabditis elegans expresses human Werner syndrome protein (WRN) orthologs as two distinct proteins: MUT-7, with a 3′−5′ exonuclease domain, and CeWRN-1, with helicase domains. How these domains cooperate remains unclear.

How HP1 Post-Translational Modifications Regulate Heterochromatin Formation and Maintenance
Heterochromatin Protein 1 (HP1) is a highly conserved protein that has been used as a classic marker for heterochromatin. HP1 binds to di- and tri-methylated histone H3K9 and regulates heterochromatin formation, functions and structure.

From Effective Interactions Extracted Using Hi-C Data to Chromosome Structures in Conventional and Inverted Nuclei [PDF]
Contact probabilities between loci, separated by arbitrary genomic distance, for a number of cell types have been reported using genome-wide chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) experiments. How to extract the effective interaction energies between active euchromatin (A) and inactive heterochromatin (B) directly from the experimental data, without an

Revisiting the role of heterochromatin protein 1 in DNA repair [PDF]
Heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) is a conserved factor critical for heterochromatin organization and gene silencing. It is recruited to chromatin by its direct interaction with H3K9me (methylated lysine 9 residue of histone H3), an epigenetic mark for silenced chromatin. Now, Luijsterburg et al.
