Regions of chromosomal DNA called centromeres are crucial to dividing cells. Centromere sequences from a human genome have been fully characterized and compared with those from other humans and non-human primates, revealing dynamic and rapid patterns of mutational change that will improve understanding of centromere evolution and function.
