Setdb1 silences ERV derived cryptic enhancers to ensure proper hematopoiesis. Although transcription factors, such as PU.1, can bind to H3K9me3 heterochromatin, their activity is inhibited by Setdb1. out in PNAS: doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2409656…

H3K9me3 is not sufficient for silencing endogenous retroviruses if DNA methylation is perturbed. In Dnmt1 ko endoderm cells, IAP elements fully maintain H3K9me3, while trancriptionally active. great collaboration with @LickertHeiko out in @NatureComms rdcu.be/cVRqS

Morc3 silences endogenous retroviruses by enabling Daxx-mediated H3.3 incorporation. Morc3 GHKL ATPase domain dimerizes for Daxx interaction. An efficient ATPase cycle is critical for H3.3 incorporation. biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor…
