Telomeres and genomic evolution.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences - 5 Mar 2018

Baird Duncan M

Abstract excerpt

The terminal regions of eukaryotic chromosomes, composed of telomere repeat sequences and sub-telomeric sequences, represent some of the most variable and rapidly evolving regions of the genome. The sub-telomeric regions are characterized by segmentally duplicated repetitive DNA elements, interstitial telomere repeat sequences and families of variable genes. Sub-telomeric repeat sequence families are shared among...
