The Structure of (CENP-A/H4)(2) Reveals Physical Features that Mark Centromeres
Centromeres are specified epigenetically, and the histone H3 variant, CENP-A, is assembled into the chromatin of all active centromeres1. Divergence from H3 raises the possibility that CENP-A generates unique chromatin features to physically mark centromere location. The crystal structure of the sub...
