- Comment For example, eukaryotic centromere regions are composed of multiple spatial and functional domains, and yet these centromeric DNA sequences are not evolutionarily conserved between species. Despite this lack of conservation in centromeric DNA sequence, in higher eukaryotes, (A+T)-rich and/or repetitive satellite DNA is generally believed to be a substrate for kinetochore nucleation, association of a highly conserved centromere-binding kinetochore proteins, and subsequent spindle microtubule attachment.
