Permissive Transcriptional Activity at the Centromere through Pockets of DNA Hypomethylation

DNA methylation is a hallmark of transcriptional silencing, yet transcription has been reported at the centromere. To address this apparent paradox, we employed a fully sequence-defined ectopic human centromere (or neocentromere) to investigate the relationship between DNA methylation and transcript...
