Alternate IDs: GO:0016440, GO:0006342, GO:1904497, GO:0070869, GO:0006343
Definition: An epigenetic gene silencing mechanism in which chromatin is compacted into heterochromatin, resulting in a chromatin conformation refractory to transcription. This process starts with heterochromatin nucleation, its spreading, and ends with heterochromatin boundary formation. Source: PMID:25192661, PMID:33827924
