Ectopic assembly of heterochromatin in Drosophila melanogaster triggered by transposable elements

A persistent question in biology is how cis -acting sequence elements influence trans -acting factors and the local chromatin environment to modulate gene expression. We reported previously that the DNA transposon 1360 can enhance silencing of a reporter in a heterochromatic domain of Drosophila mel...
