In this article we will discuss about Centromere:- 1. Structure of Centromere 2. Types of Centromere. Structure of Centromere: The site of constriction in a chromosome under light microscope is generally taken as the position of centromere. It is generally believed that constitutive heterochromatin is present in the centromeric region. The component of centromere is mainly the kinetochore, and DNA [...]
