Epigenetic centromere identity is precisely maintained through DNA replication but is uniquely specified among human cells
2022-09-07
Abstract excerpt
Centromere identity is defined and maintained epigenetically by the presence of the histone variant CENP-A. How centromeric CENP-A position is specified and precisely maintained through DNA replication is not fully understood. The recently released Telomere-to-Telomere (T2T-CHM13) genome assembly containing the first complete human centromere sequences provides a new resource for examining CENP-A position. Mapping...
