Conservation of Major Satellite DNAs in Snake Heterochromatin
Animals, 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 ...

Frontiers 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 DNA in insects: a review [PDF]
Heredity, 2008 The study of insect satellite DNAs (satDNAs) indicates the evolutionary conservation of certain features despite their sequence heterogeneity. Such features can include total length, monomer length, motifs, particular regions and/or secondary and tertiary structures.

Influence of DNA methylation on positioning and DNA flexibility of nucleosomes with pericentric satellite DNA [PDF]
Open Biology, 2015 DNA methylation occurs on CpG sites and is important to form pericentric heterochromatin domains. The satellite 2 sequence, containing seven CpG sites, is located in the pericentric region of human chromosome 1 and is highly methylated in normal cells ...

A recombinant DNA‐satellite associated with Pepper yellow leaf curl Indonesia virus in highland area
Indonesian Journal of Biotechnology, 2021 Yellow curl disease caused by begomovirus is a major threat for horticulture in Indonesia. Control mea‐ sures for the disease face several constraints, one of which is the association between begomovirus and DNA satellites which can affect the severity ...

Transcription of Satellite DNAs in Insects
, 2010 The very complex life cycle and extreme diversity of insect life forms require a carefully regulated network of biological processes to switch on and off the right genes at the right time. Chromatin condensation is an important regulatory mechanism of gene silencing as well as gene activation for the hundreds of functional protein genes harbored in ...

A conserved function for pericentromeric satellite DNA
eLife, 2018 A universal and unquestioned characteristic of eukaryotic cells is that the genome is divided into multiple chromosomes and encapsulated in a single nucleus. However, the underlying mechanism to ensure such a configuration is unknown.
