Telomere-associated repeats in Chironomus form discrete subfamilies generated by gene conversion.

Journal of molecular evolution - 1 Aug 1992

Cohn M, Edström J E

Abstract excerpt

In dipteran insects the most distal telomere-associated DNA known to exist consists of long, complex tandem repeats. We have classified the 340-bp tandemly arranged repeats in Chironomus pallidivittatus. The repeats are distributed in a small number of subfamilies. One type of the repeat has the character of a master unit from which other main units can be derived usually by simple changes. The derived...
