CENP-B Background Information A replicated chromosome includes two kinetochores that control chromosome segregation during mitosis. Both centromere proteins CENP-B and CENP-H are contained in the centromeric heterochromatin between kinetochores, and are involved in maintaining sister chromatid cohesion. The highly dispersed CENP-B promotes and maintains the joining of DNA satellites in the centromere. CENP-B targets centromeric a-DNA and protects it from digestion by nucleases as well as preventing DNAse or restriction enzyme digestion from affecting the morphology of centromeres. CENP-H contains a coiled-coil structure and a nuclear localization signal. CENP-H is specifically and constitutively localized to kinetochores and plays a role in the organization and function of kinetochores throughout the cell cycle.
