Term CENP-A containing chromatin ID (Ontology) GO:0061638 (Gene Ontology)
Definition The specialized chromatin located in the centromeric core region or the entire centromeric region in organisms with point centromeres, which is enriched for CENP-A-containing nucleosomes. This chromatin forms a 3-dimensional structure which provides a platform for kinetochore assembly and microtubule attachment.[ PubMed:20206496 PubMed:22729156 PubMed:24710126 ]
Also Known As "centromeric core region chromatin" ; "chromatin containing CENP-A"
