Long-read Data Revealed Structural Diversity in Human Centromere Sequences
2019-09-27
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Centromeres invariably serve as the loci of kinetochore assembly in all eukaryotic cells, but their underlying DNA sequences evolve rapidly. Human centromeres are characterized by their extremely repetitive structures, i.e. , higher-order repeats, rendering the region one of the most difficult parts of the genome to assess. Consequently, our understanding of centromere sequence variations acros...
