Abstract
To determine the consensus sequence of a 142-bp-long satellite monomer from the mealworm Tenebrio molitor, 22 clones were sequenced. Only nucleotide (nt) substitutions were found. The average sequence variability is 2.5 nt per monomer; changes are predominantly C----T and G----A transitions and the sequence tends to become A + T-rich. T. molitor satellite DNA is undermethylated and transcriptionally inactive.Entities:
