In addition to their location at terminal positions, telomeric-like repeats are also present at
internal sites of the chromosomes (i ntrachromosomal or i nterstitial t elomeric s equences …

By definition, telomeric sequences are located at the very ends or terminal regions of
chromosomes. However, several vertebrate species show blocks of (TTAGGG) n repeats …

Interstitial telomeric sequences (ITSs) consist of tandem repeats of the canonical telomeric
repeat and are common in mammals. They are localized at intrachromosomal sites …

Telomere has a central role in chromosomal stability events. Chromosome ends organized
in telomere-loop prevent activation of DNA damage response (DDR) mechanisms, thus …

Telomeres are nucleoprotein complexes protecting the physical ends of linear eukaryotic
chromosomes and therefore helping to ensure their stability and integrity. Additionally …

Sex chromosomes undergo rapid turnover in certain taxonomic groups. One of the
mechanisms of sex chromosome turnover involves fusions between sex chromosomes and …

The distribution of telomeric repeats was analyzed by fluorescence in situ hybridization in 15
species of arvicoline rodents, included in three different genera: Chionomys, Arvicola, and …

Marsupials typically possess very large, distinctive chromosomes that make them excellent
subjects for cytogenetic analysis, and the high level of conservation makes it relatively easy …

The concentration of evolutionary breakpoints in primate karyotypes in some particular
regions or chromosome bands suggests that these chromosome regions are more prone to …

The intrachromosomal location of the telomeric sequence in the crab-eating macaque,
Macaca fascicularis (F. Cercopithecidae, Catarrhini) has been analysed by fluorescent in …
