Tet1 regulates epigenetic remodeling of the pericentromeric heterochromatin and chromocenter organization in DNA hypomethylated cells.

Pericentromeric heterochromatin (PCH), the constitutive heterochromatin of pericentromeric regions, plays crucial roles in various cellular events, such as cell division and DNA replication. PCH forms chromocenters in the interphase nucleus, and chromocenters cluster at the prophase of meiosis. Chro...
