摘要：

Chromo-domain proteins appear to be a central component in the epigenetic regulation of heterochromatin function and euchromatic gene expression. The recent discovery of a variety of interacting partners of chrome-domain proteins is yielding new molecular insights into epigenetic regulatory processes acting at the level of higher order chromatin structure.
