Evidence of centromeric histone 3 chaperone involved in DNA damage repair pathway
2024-07-27
Abstract excerpt
The centromeric protein-A (CENP-A) is an evolutionary conserved histone H3 variant that marks the identity of the centromeres. Several mechanisms regulate the centromeric deposition of CENP-A as its mislocalization causes erroneous chromosome segregation, leading to aneuploidy-based diseases, including cancers. The most crucial deposition factor is a CENP-A specific chaperone, HJURP (Scm3 in budding yeast), which...
