Centromeres evolve progressively through selection at the kinetochore interface

Jana Helsen, Kausthubh Ramachandran, Gavin J. Sherlock, Gautam Dey

The paper investigates how new centromeres evolve and become fixed in budding yeast by analyzing 138 species and 2,500 isolates, showing that kinetochore interface constraints influence centromere evolution.
