Histone H3K9 methyltransferases regulate cortical growth by coordinating heterochromatin formation and neural progenitor dynamics

DNA packaging into heterochromatin is a fundamental mechanism of transcriptional silencing, yet its role in regulating neural progenitor behavior during brain development remains poorly understood. Trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 9 (H3K9me3), catalyzed by the methyltransferas...
