Localization of the histone H3 variant Cse4 (CENP-A) at the ~125 base pair point centromere in budding yeast directs assembly of a kinetochore that binds one microtubule. Recent work suggests there is more Cse4 at point centromeres than originally thought.
在芽殖酵母中,组蛋白 H3 变体 Cse4(着丝粒蛋白 A,CENP-A)定位于约 125 碱基对的着丝粒点,指导组装与一个微管结合的动粒。最近的研究表明,点着丝粒处的 Cse4 比最初认为的要多。
