Sequence analysis of cloned human satellite DNAs reveals nonrandom variations.

Genome - 1 Apr 1993

Abstract excerpt

We have cloned, from the genome of HeLa cells, related 1.8-kb highly repetitive EcoRI satellite II (and III) DNA family members that displayed a high degree of TaqI and HinfI variations. Comparative sequence analysis of these cloned DNAs suggests that highly repetitive satellite DNAs may have evo...
