Meiosis-specific loading of the centromere-specific histone CENH3 in Arabidopsis thaliana.
Centromere behavior is specialized in meiosis I, so that sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes are pulled toward the same side of the spindle (through kinetochore mono-orientation) and chromosome number is reduced. Factors required for mono-orientation have been identified in yeast. However, c...
