Figure 5. The change of chromatin state at the ectopic site upon recruitment of Piwi.
ChIP-qPCR using antibodies specific to the histone marks (A–H) and RNA Pol II (I) indicate that the repressive histone marks H3K9me2/3 but not active histone marks are enriched at the ectopic sites. In addition, RNA Pol II binding is reduced upon ectopic Piwi recruitment. Error bars in denote S.D.
