Histone modification. To form heterochromatin, histone deacetylation of histone tails caused by HDACs enzymes in association with DNA methylation (M) confers a dense configuration of DNA that prevents its transcription. In the euchromatin state, there is an acetylation of histone tails (A) by HATs enzymes in association with DNA demethylation to promote gene expression.
