Telomere repetitive DNA sequences control the function of eukaryotic chromosomes because they:
Telomere repetitive DNA sequences control the function of eukaryotic chromosomes because they:
are RNA transcription initiator
help chromosome pairing
prevent chromosome loss
act as replicons.
Solution
The terminal end of the chromosome is known as a telomere. It consists of repetitive DNA sequences. These are stable and resistant to exonuclease digestion and hence essential for chromosome stability.
