Three wise centromere functions: see no error, hear no break, speak no delay

Centromeres are known to promote kinetochore assembly. However, two other roles—facilitating robust sister chromatid cohesion and advancing the replication timing of centromeric regions—have recently emerged. The three are analysed in this Review.
