Chapter 11, Problem 14P
Summary Introduction
To analyze:
Question asked for a description on how DNA sequence will change with distance from the telomere?
Introduction:
Telomeres are the tip situated at two ends of the chromosome, and they protect the genome from degradation. These portionshave simple and highly repetitive sequences i.e. TAAGGC. The length of telomeres can range up to
