Establishment of H3K9me3-dependent heterochromatin during embryogenesis in Drosophila miranda
Heterochromatin is a key architectural feature of eukaryotic genomes crucial for silencing of repetitive elements. During Drosophila embryonic cellularization, heterochromatin rapidly appears over repetitive sequences, but the molecular details of how heterochromatin is established are poorly unders...
