Beschreibung

General description

17kDa

CENP-A is a variant version of histone H3 found only at centromeres.

Centromere protein A (CENP-A) is a 17 kDa centromere-specific histone variant with 62% amino acids homology to the C-terminal of histone H3. Localized in the centromere, it plays a central role in the centromere-specific chromatin formation. The depletion of histone H3 at the CENP-A binding domain suggests CENP-A to be a possible replacement for histone H3 in the packaging process of α-satellite DNA into primary chromation structure. CENP-A is essential in the formation of specialized nucleosomes at the centromere, implicating CENP-A as a centromere-specific epigenetic marker.

Immunogen

peptide (RRRSRKPEAPRRRS) corresponding to amino acids 4-17 of human CENP-A
