Cycles of satellite and transposon evolution in Arabidopsis centromeres.
Nature 20230517 7965
Centromeres are critical for cell division, loading CENH3 or CENPA histone variant nucleosomes, directing kinetochore formation and allowing chromosome segregation<sup>1,2</sup>. Despite their conserved function, centromere size and structure are diverse across species. To understand this centromere paradox<sup>3,4</sup>, it is necessary to know how centromeric diversity is generated and whether it reflects ancient trans-species variation or, instead, rapid post-speciation divergence. To address ...[more]
