HP1 loses its chromatin clustering and phase separation function across evolution

Abstract Heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) is a multifunctional chromatin-associated protein conserved from fission yeast to mammals. HP1 has been suggested to drive heterochromatin formation via phase separation. However, there is seemingly conflicting evidence about HP1 phase-separating in different...
