heterochromatic

The Y chromosome has no boundary, because it is entirely heterochromatic.

Differences in degree and distribution of heterochromatic regions.

WGS3 scaffolds that did not show significant alignment were defined to be heterochromatic.

The heterochromatic regions are the areas near the centromeres and nucleolar organizers.

These heterochromatic marks are important in telomere proximal gene silencing.

It also defines the boundaries between active and heterochromatic DNA.

Primary sources for assignments of genes to heterochromatic regions were examined and in most cases deemed inconclusive.

This sequence was included in the analysis of WGS3 heterochromatic sequence.

In addition, these sequences are enriched for the heterochromatic histone modification H3K9me3.

The total length of the genome, with heterochromatic DNA included, is 3.1 billion base pairs.

The status of the heterochromatic regions of the genome is reported in [ 5].

Although the Y chromosome is entirely heterochromatic, it contains at least 16 genes, many of which are thought to have male-related functions.

Unlike the other three gods, he is heterochromatic (his right eye is blue while his left is red).

Chromosomes that have HR experience separation of the heterochromatic regions during metaphase.

The WGS3 heterochromatic sequence is distributed in 2,597 scaffolds.

Molecularly characterized Drosophila heterochromatic genes encode diverse proteins and functions.

Many WGS3 heterochromatic gene models are based solely on gene predictions.

Heterochromatic genes have been defined by mutations that affect viability or fertility [ 33].

Most research has been focused on the active regions of the reward genes, but Maze et al. focuses at what happens to the heterochromatic regions.

The project did not study the entire DNA found in human cells; some heterochromatic areas (about 8% of the total genome) remain unsequenced.

Our results suggest that in at least some instances, the association of heterochromatic genes with transposable element sequences may be of adaptive significance.

Centromeres and heterochromatic regions were assumed not sequenced, on the basis of a review of current clone frameworks.

We found that 52% of the 20.7-Mb WGS3 heterochromatic sequence had similarity to known transposable elements.

Therefore, we consider the sequences located within the bands (h1-h61) of the cytological map defined on mitotic chromosomes to be heterochromatic.

These genes are in addition to those identified in our analysis, which was restricted to the WGS3 heterochromatic scaffolds described above.
