SWI/SNF-like chromatin remodeling factor Fun30 supports point centromere function in S. cerevisiae.

Budding yeast centromeres are sequence-defined point centromeres and are, unlike in many other organisms, not embedded in heterochromatin. Here we show that Fun30, a poorly understood SWI/SNF-like chromatin remodeling factor conserved in humans, promotes point centromere function through the formati...
