Spt6 is a maintenance factor for centromeric CENP-A
CENP-A is a stable centromere mark, although active transcription poses a potential threat for retaining CENP-A through chromatin remodeling and nucleosome eviction. Here, the authors show that maintenance of the centromeric mark is preserved by Spt6, which recycles CENP-A nucleosomes.
