Eic1 is required for Cnp1CENP-A assembly, while Eic2 is dispensable. (a) ts mutations in eic1 affect cell viability, while eic2Δ cells show no defects in growth. Five-fold serial dilutions of cells spotted on YES + Phloxine B media and incubated at the indicated temperatures; dead cells stain dark pink. (b) eic1 mutants display reduced Cnp1CENP-A levels at centromeres. qChIP analyses of Cnp1CENP-A association with centromeres in the indicated strains when grown at permissive (25°C) versus restrictive temperature (36°C) for 8 h. Enrichment of cc2 DNA relative to the act1 locus is presented. (c) eic1 mutants display sensitivity to TBZ, while eic2Δ cells show no TBZ sensitivity. Five-fold serial dilutions of cells spotted on YES media (untreated) or YES media supplemented with 12.5 μg ml−1 TBZ, and incubated at 25°C. (d) eic2Δ cells display no loss of Cnp1CENP-A at centromeres. qChIP analyses of Cnp1CENP-A association with centromeres in the indicated strains when grown at 32°C. Enrichment of cc2 or cc1/3 DNA relative to the act1 locus is presented. Error bars in (b,d) represent standard deviation between at least three biological replicates.
