Centromere-specifying nucleosomes persist in aging mouse oocytes in the absence of nascent assembly

2023-05-18

Abstract excerpt

<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Centromeres direct genetic inheritance but are not themselves genetically encoded. Instead, centromeres are defined epigenetically by the presence of a histone H3 variant, CENP-A 1 . In cultured somatic cells, an established paradigm of cell cycle-coupled propagation maintains centromere identity: CENP-A is partitioned between sisters during replication and replenished by new assembly, which is...
