The maintenance of chromatin in a transciptionally silent state such as heterochromatin. The maintenance of chromatin in a transciptionally silent state such as heterochromatin at silent mating-type loci. A process that is carried out at the cellular level that results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of chromosomes, structures composed of a very long molecule of DNA and associated proteins that carries hereditary information. Repression of transcription by altering the structure of chromatin, e.g. by conversion of large regions of DNA into an inaccessible state often called heterochromatin. Repression of transcription at silent mating-type loci by alteration of the structure of chromatin.
