DNA satellite and chromatin organization at mouse centromeres and pericentromeres

Abstract Background Centromeres are essential for faithful chromosome segregation during mitosis and meiosis. However, the organization of satellite DNA and chromatin at mouse centromeres and pericentromeres is poorly understood due to the challenges of assembling repetitive genomic regions. Results...
