Next-Generation Sequencing Enables Spatiotemporal Resolution of Human Centromere Replication Timing
Centromeres serve a critical function in preserving genome integrity across sequential cell divisions, by mediating symmetric chromosome segregation. The repetitive, heterochromatic nature of centromeres is thought to be inhibitory to DNA replication, but has also led to their underrepresentation in...
