Variation in satellite DNA profiles--causes and effects.

The EMBO journal - 15 Nov 2002

Ugarković Durdica, Plohl Miroslav

Abstract excerpt

Heterochromatic regions of the eukaryotic genome harbour DNA sequences that are repeated many times in tandem, collectively known as satellite DNAs. Different satellite sequences co-exist in the genome, thus forming a set called a satellite DNA library. Within a library, satellite DNAs represent independent evolutionary units. Their evolution can be explained as a result of change in two parameters: copy number...
