SUMMARY PARAGRAPH for TEL04R-TR

TEL04R-TR is the 96-bp internal stretch of telomeric repeats spanning dubious ORF YDR544C on the right arm of chromosome IV. The telomeric repeat is a G-rich terminal sequence of the form (TG1-3)n or more precisely ((TG)1-6TG2-3)n (1). The repeats are maintained by telomerase and there is generally 300(+/-)75 bp of TG1-3 at a given end (1). Telomeric repeats function in completing chromosome replication and protecting the ends from degradation and end-to-end fusions (1).

Other features of TEL04R, the right telomeric region of chromosome IV, include an X element core sequence TEL04R-XC, X element combinatorial repeats TEL04R-XR, and a long Y' (Y'-L) element TEL04R-YP.
