Co-localization of CENP-C and CENP-H to discontinuous domains of CENP-A chromatin at human neocentromeres (2007)

Alonso, Alicia, Fritz, Björn, Hasson, Dan, Abrusan, György, Cheung, Fanny, Yoda, Kinya, ...

Abstract Background Mammalian centromere formation is dependent on chromatin that contains centromere protein (CENP)-A, which is the centromere-specific histone H3 variant. Human neocentromeres have...

Left-handedly curved DNA regulates accessibility to cis-DNA elements in chromatin (2003)

Nishikawa, Jun-ichi, Amano, Miho, Fukue, Yoshiro, Tanaka, Shigeo, Kishi, Haruka, Hirota, Yoshiko, ...

There is little information on chromatin structure that allows access of trans‐acting transcription factors. Logically, the target DNA elements become accessible by either exposing themselves...

Genomic microarray analysis reveals distinct locations for the CENP-A binding domains in three human chromosome 13q32 neocentromeres (2003)

Alonso, Alicia, Mahmood, Radma, Li, Shulan, Cheung, Fanny, Yoda, Kinya, Warburton, Peter E.

Human neocentromeres are fully functional centromeres that provide mitotic stability to rearranged chromosomes that have separated from endogenous centromeres. A disproportionate number of...

Human centromere protein A (CENP-A) can replace histone H3 in nucleosome reconstitution in vitro

Yoda, Kinya, Ando, Satoshi, Morishita, Setsuo, Houmura, Kenichi, Hashimoto, Keiji, Takeyasu, Kunio, ...

Centromere protein A (CENP-A) is a variant of histone H3 with more than 60% sequence identity at the C-terminal histone fold domain. CENP-A specifically locates to active centromeres of animal...

CENP-A, -B, and -C Chromatin Complex That Contains the I-Type α-Satellite Array Constitutes the Prekinetochore in HeLa Cells

Ando, Satoshi, Yang, Hua, Nozaki, Naohito, Okazaki, Tuneko, Yoda, Kinya

CENP-A is a component of centromeric chromatin and defines active centromere regions by forming centromere-specific nucleosomes. We have isolated centromeric chromatin containing the CENP-A...

Construction of a Linkage Map of the Medaka (Oryzias latipes) and Mapping of the Da Mutant Locus Defective in Dorsoventral Patterning

Ohtsuka, Masato, Makino, Satoshi, Yoda, Kinya, Wada, Hironori, Naruse, Kiyoshi, Mitani, Hiroshi, ...

Double anal fin (Da) is a medaka with an autosomal semidominant mutation that causes mirror image duplication of the ventral region concentrating on the caudal region. The chromosomal location of the...
