| GO term: | chromosome, centromeric region |
| Synonym: | centromere |
| Synonym: | chromosome, centric region |
| Synonym: | chromosome, pericentric region |
| GO id: | GO:0000775 |
| Definition: | The region of a chromosome that includes the centromeric DNA and associated proteins. In monocentric chromosomes, this region corresponds to a single area of the chromosome, whereas in holocentric chromosomes, it is evenly distributed along the chromosome. |
| Comments | 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. |
| Number of paths to term: | 17 |
