Nucleosomes at eukaryotic centromeres combine the histone H3 variant CENP-A and canonical H3 di-methylated at lysine 4 (H3K4me2), whose functional importance within the centromere region remains elusive. In this issue, Bergmann et al reveal a role for H3K4me2 in CENP-A maintenance, and extend the profile of centromeric histone modifications to include H3K36 methylation, typically found in transcribed regions of the genome.
