Abstract excerpt

We describe a new subfamily of satellite III DNA (pTRS-63), which, by a combination of in situ hybridization to human metaphase chromosomes and analysis of a panel of somatic cell hybrids, is shown to be specific for human chromosome 14. This DNA has a basic 5-bp repeating unit of diverged GGAAT...
