HP1 oligomerization compensates for low-affinity H3K9me recognition and provides a tunable mechanism for heterochromatin-specific localization

HP1 proteins traverse a complex and crowded chromatin landscape to bind with low affinity but high specificity to histone H3K9 methylation (H3K9me) and form transcriptionally inactive genomic compartments called heterochromatin. Here, we visualize single-molecule dynamics of an HP1 homolog, the fiss...
