Sgo1 localization at the neocentromere is kinetochore biased. (A) Sgo1 localization in Neo4p13 compared with random endogenous centromeres. Representative mitotic spreads coimmunostained for Sgo1, ACA, and CENP-B. Insets show Neo4p13 and random centromeres with Sgo1 localization toward the kinetochores (two dots) or the inner centromere (one dot) and the quantification of each localization pattern (%) from three independent experiments (n = 50 spreads). P < 0.0001 (t test). Scale bars, 2 µm. (B) Genomic snapshot of quantitative ChIP-seq reads (RPKM, reads per kilobase per million) for Rad21 (mitotic cells) plotted as in Fig. 3 B. (C) Estimated allele specific coverage of Rad21 on the 4p13 region on the neocentromere-containing chromosome in Neo4p13 cells inferred as in Fig. 3 C. chr, chromosome; IP, immunoprecipitation.
