The paper identifies conserved and species-specific gene clusters coordinating disparate biological processes across eukaryotes, revealing regulatory proximity as a mechanism for transcriptional coherence.

The paper identifies distinct epigenetic subdomains in subtelomeric heterochromatin of S. pombe, showing position-specific silencing and the role of structural variants in epigenetic stability.

This paper describes a protocol using Saccharomyces cerevisiae chromatin as a spike-in control to normalize ChIP signals for S. pombe heterochromatin-associated proteins.

The paper develops a mathematical model to show that pericentromeric repeat copy number determines heterochromatin silencing in fission yeast, with implications for genome stability.
