Nucleation and spreading of a heterochromatic domain in fission yeast
Chromosomes contain large heterochromatin domains. Here, the authors measure the kinetics of heterochromatin formation in fission yeast and show both global and local feedbacks by nucleosome-bound enzymes are important for formation and stability of the large heterochromatin domains.
