Satellite DNA in Neotropical Deer Species [PDF]

open access: yesGenes, 2021
The taxonomy and phylogenetics of Neotropical deer have been mostly based on morphological criteria and needs a critical revision on the basis of new molecular and cytogenetic markers. In this study, we used the variation in the sequence, copy number, and chromosome localization of satellite I-IV DNA to evaluate evolutionary relationships among eight ...

Genome size and identification of repetitive DNA sequences using low coverage sequencing in Hancornia speciosa Gomes (Apocynaceae: Gentianales) [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2020
Repetitive DNA is an important component of eukaryotic genomes, accounting for more than 90% of the genome size of some species, including mobile elements and satellite DNA sequences.

GlaI digestion of mouse γ-satellite DNA: study of primary structure and ACGT sites methylation

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2009
Background Patterns of mouse DNA hydrolysis with restriction enzymes are coincided with calculated diagrams of genomic DNA digestion in silico, except presence of additional bright bands, which correspond to monomer and dimer of γ-satellite DNA.

Characterization and transcriptional analysis of a subtelomeric satellite DNA family in the ladybird beetle Henosepilachna argus (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2017
Satellite DNAs are the major repetitive DNA components in eukaryotic genomes. Although satellite DNA has long been called "parasite DNA" there is substantial evidence that it could be associated with some functions of chromosome biology. Ladybird beetles

The modular mechanism of chromocenter formation in Drosophila

open access: yeseLife, 2019
A central principle underlying the ubiquity and abundance of pericentromeric satellite DNA repeats in eukaryotes has remained poorly understood. Previously we proposed that the interchromosomal clustering of satellite DNAs into nuclear structures known ...

Conservation of Major Satellite DNAs in Snake Heterochromatin

open access: yesAnimals, 2023
Repetitive DNA sequences constitute a sizeable portion of animal genomes, and tandemly organized satellite DNAs are a major part of them. They are usually located in constitutive heterochromatin clusters in or near the centromeres or telomeres, and less ...

Evaluation of intra- and interspecific divergence of satellite DNA sequences by nucleotide frequency calculation and pairwise sequence comparison

open access: yesBiological Procedures Online, 2003
Satellite DNA sequences are known to be highly variable and to have been subjected to concerted evolution that homogenizes member sequences within species.

DNA Methylation Patterns of a Satellite Non-coding Sequence – FA-SAT in Cancer Cells: Its Expression Cannot Be Explained Solely by DNA Methylation

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2019
Satellite ncRNAs are emerging as key players in cell and cancer pathways. Cancer-linked satellite DNA hypomethylation seems to be responsible for the overexpression of satellite non-coding DNAs in several tumors.

Characterization of Two Satellite DNA Families in the Genome of the Oomycete Plant Pathogen Phytophthora parasitica

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2020
Satellite DNA is a class of repetitive sequences that are organized in long arrays of tandemly repeated units in most eukaryotes. Long considered as selfish DNA, satellite sequences are now proposed to contribute to genome integrity.

Satellite DNAs in Health and Disease [PDF]

open access: yesGenes, 2022
Tandemly repeated satellite DNAs are major components of centromeres and pericentromeric heterochromatin which are crucial chromosomal elements responsible for accurate chromosome segregation. Satellite DNAs also contribute to genome evolution and the speciation process and are important for the maintenance of the entire genome inside the nucleus.
