Abstract
(TTAGGG)n sequences have been localized on the chromosomes of the Chinese hamster V79 cell line. A correlation between telomeric-like repeats and chromosome breakage has been found. Moreover, the analysis of the truncated chromosomes, typical of this cell line, has suggested that intrachromosomal (TTAGGG)n DNA may be important in the stabilization of the new telomeres.File in questo prodotto:
