Distinct roles for Sir2 and RNAi in centromeric heterochromatin nucleation, spreading and maintenance

Epigenetically regulated heterochromatin domains govern essential cellular activities. A key feature of heterochromatin domains is the presence of hypoacetylated nucleosomes, which are methylated on lysine 9 of histone H3 (H3K9me). Here, we investigate the requirements for establishment, spreading a...
