Identification of a CENP-A recognition module within CENP-C. (A) Full-length (1–943) and various truncation mutants of [35S]methionine-labeled CENP-C were produced in rabbit reticulocyte extracts and resolved on a 12.5% SDS-PAGE gel. The amino acids within CENP-C that are included in each protein are indicated below the gel. The positions of molecular weight markers (kD) are indicated to the left of the gel. (B) Each CENP-C protein was incubated alone (−) or in the presence of 300 nM of CENP-A nucleosomes (+) and resolved on a native gel. (C) CENP-C426–537 was incubated alone (−) or in the presence of α-satellite DNA or the indicated nucleosome (10 nM) and resolved on a native gel. (D and E) CENP-C426–537 was incubated alone (−) or in the presence of the indicated nucleosomes (10 nM) and analyzed as above. The specific regions of CENP-A and H3 included in each chimera are schematized in Fig. 1 B.
