Abstract excerpt
Functional tags are ubiquitous in cell biology, and for studies of one chromosomal locus, the centromere, tags have been remarkably useful. The centromere directs chromosome inheritance at cell division. The location of the centromere is defined by a histone H3 variant, CENP-A. The regulation of the chromatin assembly pathway essential for centromere inheritance and function includes posttranslational...
