Silent but not static: accelerated base-pair substitution in silenced chromatin of budding yeasts.

PLoS genetics - 1 Nov 2008

Teytelman Leonid, Eisen Michael B, Rine Jasper

Abstract excerpt

Subtelomeric DNA in budding yeasts, like metazoan heterochromatin, is gene poor, repetitive, transiently silenced, and highly dynamic. The rapid evolution of subtelomeric regions is commonly thought to arise from transposon activity and increased recombination between repetitive elements. However...
