General Information
Term transposable element silencing by heterochromatin formation ID (Ontology) GO:0141005 (Gene Ontology)
Definition A transposable element silencing mechanism involving heterochromatin assembly. Heterochromatin is a chromatin conformation that is refractory to transcription.[ PubMed:25247314 PubMed:28951459 PubMed:32823517 ]
