How can you use “telomere” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Cohesin is found at the boundaries of the HMR locus, the right telomere of Chromosome III, and the RDN1 array, all regions of silent chromatin [16].
Near the end of endo-replication in Spirotrichs many transposons and transposon-like sequences are eliminated by precise excision (Internal Eliminated Sequences or IESs [ 23 ] ). Excision directly precedes massive chromatid fragmentation and de novo telomere formation ("chromosome healing" [ 9 ] ) and the degradation of IESs and of "spacer" DNAs that lie between blocks of sequences destined for different MAC chromosomes.
In addition, other studies have revealed a functional role for checkpoint Rad proteins in telomere maintenance [ 43 44 ] , while one has shown that an over-expressed, epitope tagged version of Rad3 associates with telomeric DNA [ 44 ] . It will be interesting to determine if checkpoint proteins have a role in centromere function, or mating-type silencing, both of which require intact heterochromatic structures.
In this procedure, PCR is performed with the P1-anchor PCR product as template, using P1 in combination with an oligomer of 3' telomere repeats (see "Anchor" and "G 4 T 4 G 4 T 4 G 4 " marked in Fig.
An analogous sequence, E-cbs, has been characterized in Euplotes by sequence comparisons and analyses of DNA intermediates and products of MAC development [ 37 38 39 ] . At a fixed distance from itself, E-cbs directs a 6-nucleotide staggered cut, with a protruding 3'OH to which telomerase adds telomere repeats.
