The HFD of Cse4p is sufficient for a functional centromere specific nucleosome: An investigation into kinetochore formation on cen DNA
Centromeres are the site on a chromosome that allows for proper chromosome segregation during cell division. The kinetochore, a DNA-protein complex that forms at the centromere, attaches the chromosome to the spindle fiber and therefore ensures faithful separation of the chromosomes. Cse4p was ident...
