High-resolution mapping of centromeric protein association using APEX-chromatin fibers

Abstract Background The centromere is a specialized chromosomal locus that forms the basis for the assembly of a multi-protein complex, the kinetochore and ensures faithful chromosome segregation during every cell division. The repetitive nature of the underlying centromeric sequence represents a ma...
