Abstract excerpt

Fission yeast centromeres vary in size but are organized in a similar fashion. Each consists of two distinct domains, namely, the approximately 15-kilobase (kb) central region (cnt+imr), containing chromosome-specific low copy number sequences, and 20- to 100-kb outer surrounding sequences (otr)...
