Centromeres are maintained by fastening CENP-A to DNA and directing an arginine anchor-dependent nucleosome transition

Centromeres are maintained by fastening CENP-A to DNA and directing an arginine anchor-dependent nucleosome transition

Maintaining centromere identity relies upon the persistence of the epigenetic mark provided by the histone H3 variant, centromere protein A (CENP-A), but the molecular mechanisms that underlie its remarkable stability remain unclear. Here, we define the contributions of each of the three candidate C...
