Duplication of chromatin following DNA replication requires spatial reorganization of chromatin domains assisted by chromatin assembly factor CAF-1. Here, we tested the genomic consequences of CAF-1 loss and the function of chromatin assembly factor CAF-1 in heterochromatin formation. Genes located in heterochromatic regions are usually silent, and we found that this transcriptional repression persists in the absence of CAF-1 in Arabidopsis. However, using microarrays we observed that genes that ...[more]
