Term:programmed DNA elimination by chromosome breakage
go back to main search page
Accession:GO:0031052 term browser browse the term
Definition:Regulated cleavage of the developing macronuclear genome at a limited number of chromosome breakage sites (CBS). The macronuclear destined segment (MDS) sequence adjacent to the CBS (or separated from it by a BES) receives a macronuclear telomere following chromosome breakage.
Comment:Note that this term refers to breakage of chromosomes during normal DNA well characterized in ciliates but also present in many vertebrates; it is not to be used for DNA damage or other abnormal occurrences.
Synonyms:related_synonym: chromosome breakage
