Abstract excerpt
The subtelomeric Y' repeated sequence families in two divergent strains of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae have been characterized in terms of copy number, location and restriction site differences. The strain YP1 has 26 to 30 Y's that fall into two previously described, long (6.7 kb) and short (5.2 kb), size classes. These Y's reside at 19 of the 32 chromosome ends and are concentrated in the higher molecular...
