Developmentally Excised DNA Sequences in Euplotes crassus Capable of Forming G Quartets

Tens of thousands of DNA segments are eliminated by DNA breakage and rejoining events during the formation of a new macronucleus in the hypotrichous ciliated protozoan Euplotes crassus. This study presents evidence for a class of eliminated sequences referred to as telomeric-repeatlike internal elim...

Zusammenfassung:Tens of thousands of DNA segments are eliminated by DNA breakage and rejoining events during the formation of a new macronucleus in the hypotrichous ciliated protozoan Euplotes crassus. This study presents evidence for a class of eliminated sequences referred to as telomeric-repeatlike internal eliminated sequences (TelIESs). TelIESs are shorter (
