Standard name GOBP_PERICENTRIC_HETEROCHROMATIN_FORMATION
Systematic name M46762
Brief description The compaction of chromatin located adjacent to the CENP-A rich centromere 'central core' and characterized by methylation of histone H3K9, into heterochromatin, resulting in the repression of transcription at pericentric DNA. [GOC:mah, PMID:14612388, PMID:20206496, PMID:22729156]
