Chromosome healing through terminal deletions generated by <i>de novo</i> telomere additions in <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i>
24 Aug 2004
Abstract excerpt
Broken chromosomes healed by de novo addition of a telomere are a major class of genome rearrangements seen in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and similar to rearrangements seen in human tumors. We have analyzed the sequences of 534 independent de novo telomere additions within a 12-kb region of chromosome V. The distribution of events mirrored that of four-base sequences consisting of the GG, GT, and TG dinucleotides,...
