The N-terminal Tail of C. elegans CENP-A Interacts with KNL-2 and is Essential for Centromeric Chromatin Assembly

C. de Groot, J. Houston, B. Davis, A. Gerson-Gurwitz, J. Monen, K. Oegema, A. K. Shiau, A. Desai

This study identifies the N-terminal tail of C. elegans CENP-A as essential for centromeric chromatin assembly through its interaction with KNL-2, compensating for the absence of Scm3/HJURP.
