normal spatial extent of CENP-A containing nucleosome assembly

Ontology or CV name

Phenotype

Definition

A cellular process phenotype observed in the vegetative growth phase of the life cycle in which nucleosomes containing the histone H3 variant CenH3 (also called CENP-A; Cnp1 in S. pombe) are assembled over a normal (i.e. indistinguishable from wild type) portion of the centromeric region of the chromosome. CENP-A-containing nucleosomes are assembled into chromatin around centromeres, encompassing the central core and centromeric inner repeat regions.
