Abstract:Pericentromeric tandemly repeated DNA of human satellites 1, 2, and 3 (HS1, HS2, and HS3) is actively transcribed in some cells. However, the functionality of the transcription remains obscure. Studies in this area have been hampered by the absence of a gapless genome assembly. The aim of our study was to map a transcript that we have previously described as HS2/HS3 on chromosomes using a newly published gapless genome assembly T2T-CHM13, and create a plasmid overexpressing the transcript to assess the influen… Show more
