CSE4 [YKL049C]

Histone H3-like centromere protein; associated with promoters, accessible chromatin, RNAPII-bound regions; phosphorylated Cse4p associates with centromeres; required for proper kinetochore function; levels regulated by E3 ubiquitin ligase Psh1p; phosphorylation may destabilize defective kinetochores to promote bi-orientation; ubiquitination of N-terminus regulates proteolysis for faithful chromosome segregation; yeast CSE4 can complement mutations in human homolog CENPA
