findings uncover quantitative differences in how Swi6 and Chp2 interact with nucleosomal and non-nucleosomal ligands and qualitative differences in how their assembly on nucleosomes is regulated
Title: Biochemical Basis for Distinct Roles of the Heterochromatin Proteins Swi6 and Chp2.

rather than promoting maintenance and spreading of heterochromatin, Swi6 appears to limit these processes and appropriately confine heterochromatin.
Title: H3K9 methylation extends across natural boundaries of heterochromatin in the absence of an HP1 protein.

Division of Labor between the Chromodomains of HP1/Swi6 and Suv39/Clr4 Is Required for Productive Heterochromatin Assembly.
Title: Division of labor between the chromodomains of HP1 and Suv39 methylase enables coordination of heterochromatin spread.

binding of HP1 protein, Swi6, to methylated nucleosomes drives a switch from an auto-inhibited state to a spreading-competent state, where H3K9-methylated heterochromatin spreads to adjacent regions
Title: A conformational switch in HP1 releases auto-inhibition to drive heterochromatin assembly.

Ers1 may promote RNAi by tethering the corresponding enzyme complexes to HP1-coated chromatin, thereby placing them in proximity to the nascent noncoding RNA substrate
Title: Ers1 links HP1 to RNAi.
