Adaptive evolution of the histone fold domain in centromeric histones.
Centromeric DNA, being highly repetitive, has been refractory to molecular analysis. However, centromeric structural proteins are encoded by single-copy genes, and these can be analyzed by using standard phylogenetic tools. The centromere-specific histone, CenH3, replaces histone H3 in centromeric nucleosomes, and is required for the proper distribution of chromosomes during cell division. Wher...
متن کاملRecurrent Gene Duplication Leads to Diverse Repertoires of Centromeric Histones in Drosophila Species
Despite their essential role in the process of chromosome segregation in most eukaryotes, centromeric histones show remarkable evolutionary lability. Not only have they been lost in multiple insect lineages, but they have also undergone gene duplication in multiple plant lineages. Based on detailed study of a handful of model organisms including Drosophila melanogaster, centromeric histone dupl...

متن کاملA novel cis-acting centromeric DNA element affects S. pombe centromeric chromatin structure at a distance
The chromatin structure of the central core region of Schizosaccharomyces pombe centromeric DNA is unusual. This distinctive chromatin structure is associated only with central core sequences in a functional context and is modulated by a novel cis-acting DNA element (centromere enhancer) within the functionally critical K centromeric repeat, which is found in multiple copies in all three S. pom...
