Peloton trainer Susie Chan poses for picture. Susie Chan has been in a hurry since she first started running at age 35. Quickly falling in love with the sport, her mileage rapidly cranked up to 50 miles a week while she rattled through numerous long-distance races and led daily Peloton classes. Now 51, and having just completed the 81-mile Badwater Salton Sea ultra, she has no intention of giving up the big races—but she is actively training smarter rather than harder these days.

Abstract How genes are desilenced without erasure of repressive chromatin is a poorly understood phenomenon. A dominant mode of repression occurs through methylation of lysine 9 of histone H3 (H3K9me3), a mark that engages heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) to drive chromatin compaction and transcriptional silencing. The erasure and replacement of this repressive mark with acetyl/acyl groups recruits positive factors such as BRD4/BET to elicit gene transcription.
