title: Multiple pathways for telomere tethering: functional implications of subnuclear position for heterochromatin formation.
abstract: Technical advances in the imaging of GFP derivatives in living cells have improved our ability to determine the position and dynamics of specific chromatin loci. This approach, combined with genetics and functional assays, has shed new light on how nuclear compartments facilitate gene repression in yeast.
