Epigenetic gene silencing by heterochromatin primes fungal resistance
2019-10-17
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> Genes embedded in H3 lysine 9 methylation (H3K9me)–dependent heterochromatin are transcriptionally silenced 1-3 . In fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe , H3K9me heterochromatin silencing can be transmitted through cell division provided the counteracting demethylase Epe1 is absent 4,5 . It is possible that under certain conditions wild-type cells might utilize heterochromatin heritabilit...
