Title: The ends and the middle: putting chromosomes together. Author: Pardue ML. Journal: Curr Opin Genet Dev; 1994 Dec; 4(6):845-50. PubMed ID: 7888754. Abstract: The three known classes of eukaryotic telomeres share the requirement for an RNA template in their replication. This RNA-templated replication is subject to species-specific differences, such as telomere length and its regulation, which suggest that telomeres may have acquired different additional functions in different organisms. Centromeres show less conservation than do telomeres.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
