telomeric_repeat
SO:0001496
Definition: The telomeric repeat is a repeat region, part of the chromosome, which in yeast, is a G-rich terminal sequence of the form (TG(1-3))n or more precisely ((TG)(1-6)TG(2-3))n.
Comments and references
The repeats are maintained by telomerase and there is generally 300 (+/-) 75 bp of TG(1-3) at a given end. Telomeric repeats function in completing chromosome replication and protecting the ends from degradation and end-to-end fusions. This term was requested 2009-10-16 by Michel Dumontier, tracker id 2880739.

Change history
This timeline summarizes changes identified in SO’s GitHub commit history, including updates to labels, definitions, parent terms, synonyms, subsets, and obsoletion status. It is a best-effort reconstruction and may not include every change to a term. Since only history from GitHub is included at the moment, any term added before the migration from SVN to Git will show as being created in 2016. This will be addressed once SVN history is incorporated.
