CENPB

Entrez Summary: N/A
UniProt Summary: Interacts with centromeric heterochromatin in chromosomes and binds to a specific 17 bp subset of alphoid satellite DNA, called the CENP-B box (PubMed:11726497). May organize arrays of centromere satellite DNA into a higher-order structure which then directs centromere formation and kinetochore assembly in mammalian chromosomes (Probable). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11726497, ECO:0000305}.
