Turnover of retroelements and satellite DNA drives centromere reorganization over short evolutionary timescales in Drosophila

2023-08-23

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Centromeres reside in rapidly evolving, repeat-rich genomic regions, despite their essential function in chromosome segregation. Across organisms, centromeres are rich in selfish genetic elements such as transposable elements and satellite DNAs that can bias their transmission through meiosis. However, these elements still need to cooperate at some level and contribute to, or avoid interfering w...
