Some of these new positions were originally euchromatic and lack alpha satellite DNA altogether.

Satellite viral particles should not be confused with satellite DNA.

Some types of satellite DNA in humans are:

One year later, a hammerhead ribozyme was also reported in the satellite DNA of newt genomes.

Human centromeres contain primarily alpha (or alphoid) satellite DNA.

Repeats were first identified by the extraction of Satellite DNA, which does not reveal how they are organized.

Most satellite DNA is localized to the telomeric or the centromeric region of the chromosome.

Alphasatellites are single stranded satellite DNA that are dependent on a virus for transmission.

Characterization of Satellite DNA in Bovidae.

C-banding methods demonstrate constitutive heterochromatin which, in the mouse, is normally composed of centromere-associated satellite DNA.

Outside of gene exons, there exist regulatory sequence motifs and motifs within the "junk", such as satellite DNA.

The supernumeraries, which have a satellite DNA, occur in warm, dry environments, and are scarce or absent in humid, cooler localities.

The region contains specific types of DNA, which are tandem repetitive sequences (satellite DNA).

DNA organization in the centromere (satellite DNA) is one of the least known aspects in vertebrate kinetochores.

Modern phylogenetics uses sophisticated techniques such as alloenzymes, satellite DNA and other molecular markers to describe traits that are shared between distantly related lineages.

It typically consists of large arrays of repetitive DNA (e.g. satellite DNA) where the sequence within individual repeat elements is similar but not identical.

Tandem repeats are usually caused by slippage during replication, unequal crossing-over and gene conversion, satellite DNA and microsatellites are forms of tandem repeats in the genome.

The DNA binding domain recognizes and binds a 17-bp sequence (CENP-B box) in the centromeric alpha satellite DNA.

However, we were unable to identify BACs containing the Y-linked genes ccy and kl-5 in available Drosophila BAC libraries [ 60, 72], perhaps due to high satellite DNA content.

A repeated pattern can be between 1 base pair long (a mononucleotide repeat) to several thousand base pairs long, and the total size of a satellite DNA block can be several megabases without interruption.

This suggests that ZNF11A and associated sequences either lie in close proximity to the centromere on 10q, amongst highly repetitive satellite DNA families, or that they are located on the short arm of chromosome 10.

Multicopy single-stranded DNA (msDNA) is a type of extrachromosomal satellite DNA that consists of a single-stranded DNA molecule covalently linked via a 2'-5'phosphodiester bond to an internal guanosine of an RNA molecule.
