Sequences specify centromeric chromatin
n page 765, Ohzeki et al. present evidence for sequence specificity in assembling chromatin at mammalian centromeres. The sequence requirements imply that construction of centromeric chromatin is more than an epigenetic process. O Centromeric chromatin assembles at AT-rich repeats called ␣ satellite sequences, or alphoids. Type I alphoids contain boxes for the binding of CENP-B, one of several ...
متن کاملKey-string algorithm--novel approach to computational analysis of repetitive sequences in human centromeric DNA.
AIM To use a novel computational approach, Key-string Algorithm (KSA), for the identification and analysis of arbitrarily large repetitive sequences and higher-order repeats (HORs) in noncoding DNA. This approach is based on the use of key string that plays a role of an arbitrarily constructed "computer enzyme". METHOD A cluster of novel KSA-related methods was introduced and developed on the...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of centromeric repetitive DNA sequences in Saccharum spontaneum
Sugarcane (Saccharum hybrids spp.) is the most important sugar crop that accounts for ~75% of the world's sugar production. Recently, a whole-genome sequencing project was launched on the wild species S. spontaneum. To obtain information on the DNA composition of the repeat-enriched region of the centromere, we conducted a genome-wide analysis of the DNA sequences associated with CenH3 (a mutan...
متن کاملDuplication of centromeric histone H3 (HTR12) gene in Arabidopsis halleri and A. lyrata, plant species with multiple centromeric satellite sequences.
Arabidopsis halleri and lyrata have three different major centromeric satellite sequences, a unique finding for a diploid Arabidopsis species. Since centromeric histones coevolve with centromeric satellites, these proteins would be predicted to show signs of selection when new centromere satellites have recently arisen. We isolated centromeric protein genes from A. halleri and lyrata and found ...
متن کاملPolymorphisms and genomic organization of repetitive DNA from centromeric regions of Arabidopsis chromosomes.
A highly abundant repetitive DNA sequence family of Arabidopsis, AtCon, is composed of 178-bp tandemly repeated units and is located at the centromeres of all five chromosome pairs. Analysis of multiple copies of AtCon showed 95% conservation of nucleotides, with some alternative bases, and revealed two boxes, 30 and 24 bp long, that are 99% conserved. Sequences at the 3' end of these boxes sho...
