Dual recognition of CENP-A nucleosomes is required for centromere assembly.

The Journal of cell biology - 28 Jun 2010

Carroll Christopher W, Milks Kirstin J, Straight Aaron F

Abstract excerpt

Centromeres contain specialized nucleosomes in which histone H3 is replaced by the histone variant centromere protein A (CENP-A). CENP-A nucleosomes are thought to act as an epigenetic mark that specifies centromere identity. We previously identified CENP-N as a CENP-A nucleosome-specific binding...
