Centromeres were first thought to be genetic loci that direct the behavior of chromosomes. * The physical role of the centromere is to act as the site of assembly of the kinetochores a highly complex multiprotein structure that is responsible for the actual events of chromosome segregation i.e. binding microtubules and signalling to the cell cycle machinery when all chromosomes have adopted correct attachments to the spindle, so that it is safe for cell division to proceed to completion and for cells to enter anaphase.There are, broadly speaking, two types of centromeres. "Point centromeres" bind to specific proteins that recognize particular DNA sequences with high efficiency. Any piece of DNA with the point centromere DNA sequence on it will typically form a centromere if present in the appropriat |
