A macronuclear pointer could derive entirely from the headpointer, entirely from the tailpointer, or chimerically from both, depending on the splice location. |
We have previously reported the existence of loci that assort together and hypothesized that these loci reside on the same macronuclear piece. |
Note that macronuclear karyokinesis and cytokinesis has initiated in rad 51 nulls despite the failure to complete micronuclear mitosis. |
The micronuclei of wild-type pairs provided a reliable diploid standard to quantify the macronuclear DNA content of exconjugants by cytophotometry. |
Negative controls were always performed with water or macronuclear DNA as initial template. |
Telomere proteins from ciliated protozoa bind to the single-stranded G-rich DNA extensions at the ends of macronuclear chromosomes. |
