A novel role for histone chaperones CAF-1 and Rtt106p in heterochromatin silencing.

The EMBO journal - 2 May 2007

Huang Shengbing, Zhou Hui, Tarara Jim, Zhang Zhiguo

Abstract excerpt

The histone chaperones CAF-1 and Rtt106p are required for heterochromatin silencing in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Although it has been suggested that CAF-1 is involved in the maintenance of heterochromatin silencing, their exact functions during this process are not well understood. Here, we show that CAF-1 and Rtt106p are involved in the early stages of heterochromatin formation. The binding of Sir...
