📢ACCESS DENIED!! Ever wonder how heterochromatin causes transcriptional gene silencing and is epigenetically inherited? Excited to share our new story showing that histone deacetylation, a conserved feature of heterochromatin domains from yeast to mammals, limits access to SWI/SNF chromatin remodelers to prevent unraveling of nucleosomes, which enforces gene silencing and maintains high H3K9me3 density required for epigenetic inheritance #epigenetics #heterochromatin #histones #chromatin Congratulations to @rakesh_k_sahu and other lab members! cell.com/molecular-cell…

We're deeply saddened by the passing of Dr. Maxine Singer, esteemed scientist emeritus at NCI’s Laboratory of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. Her groundbreaking work and dedication to science have left an enduring legacy. Our thoughts are with her family and colleagues🌹

📢An elegant dance between replication and histone retention for epigenetic inheritance!🥳Our new work shows that heterochromatin domains are specialized replication zones that preserve parental modified histones to ensure self-templated chromatin assembly bit.ly/4b8wpNA
