Diverse histone modifications on histone 3 lysine 9 and their relation to DNA methylation in specifying gene silencing

BACKGROUND: Previous studies of individual genes have shown that in a self-enforcing way, dimethylation at histone 3 lysine 9 (dimethyl-H3K9) and DNA methylation cooperate to maintain a repressive mode of inactive genes. Less clear is whether this cooperation is generalized in mammalian genomes, suc...
