| def | "The region of a condensed chromosome that includes the centromere and associated proteins, including the kinetochore.

| comment | 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.
