Details for condensed chromosome, centromeric region
Gene ontology ID
GO:0000779
Definition
The region of a condensed chromosome that includes the centromere and associated proteins, including the kinetochore. In monocentric chromosomes, this region corresponds to a single area of the chromosome, whereas in holocentric chromosomes, it is evenly distributed along the chromosome
Comment
Note that this term can be used in place of the obsolete cellular component term 'centromere ; GO:0005698'. Use with caution because this term refers to a specific region of the chromosome and not a protein complex.
Synonyms
1. condensed chromosome, centric region
2. condensed chromosome, centromere
3. condensed chromosome, pericentric region
