Modeling of chromosomal epigenetic silencing processes.

Attila Becskei1, Simone Scherrer, Janos Z Kelemen, Ann Ehrenhofer Murray.   

Abstract

Silenced genes in eukaryotes are packaged into heterochromatin. In addition to establishing a passive storage site for inactive genes in differentiated cells, silencing can play an active role in promoting cellular differentiation. Here, we describe quantitative modeling of silencing processes.
