EASTBIO - The hidden role of acrocentric short arms in genome instability

University of Edinburgh
School of Genetics and Cancer (College of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine)
The short arms of acrocentric chromosomes 13, 14, 15, 21 and 22 are among the least understood regions of the human genome. They consist of highly repetitive DNA (rDNA arrays, satellite repeats and segmental duplications), meaning much of their sequence is missing from canonical references like hg38. Read more
