To identify sequences from the centromeric region, we have constructed a Drosophila
melanogaster yeast artificial chromosome (YAC) library and screened it with purified DNA
from the minichromosome Dp (1; f) 1187 derived from the X chromosome. We describe the
structure of one clone isolated in this way. This YAC is structurally unstable and contains
tandemly repeated G+ C-rich 11-mer and 12-mer units, which we call dodeca satellite. Most
of this satellite is located near the centromere of an autosome. Cross-hybridizing sequences …
To identify sequences from the centromeric region, we have constructed a Drosophila melanogaster yeast artificial chromosome (YAC) library and screened it with purified DNA from the minichromosome Dp(1;f)1187 derived from the X chromosome. We describe the structure of one clone isolated in this way. This YAC is structurally unstable and contains tandemly repeated G+C-rich 11-mer and 12-mer units, which we call dodeca satellite. Most of this satellite is located near the centromere of an autosome. Cross-hybridizing sequences are found in the genomes of organisms as distant as Arabidopsis thaliana and Homo sapiens.
