Partial Delection of Alpha Satellite DNA Associated with Reduced Amounts of the Centromere Protein CENP-B in a Mitotically Stable Human Chromosome Rearrangement
-
of interest, This study describes a stable chromosome in which most alpha satellite (and most CENP-B) has been removed as part of an interstitial centromeric deletion. Since both the deleted chromosome and the excised centromeric fragment possess functional centromeres, the data indicate that typical human centromeres are structurally and functionally repetitive. The authors point out that alpha satellite itself is a candidate for such a functional chromosomal locus.

Chromosome-specific Alpha Satellites: Two Distinct Families on Human Chromosome 18
-
of outstanding interest, The most thorough analysis of inter-monomer sequence variation described to date, this study reports consensus sequences for the major suprachromosomal subfamilies and their constituent monomers. This paper is important, since it carefully presents a framework for analysis of sequence variation and since it suggests that most of the current alpha satellite family derived from only three distinct monomer types.

Y Chromosome DNA Haplotyping Suggests that Most European and Asian Men are Descended from One of Two Males
-
of outstanding interest, The first large-scale survey of alpha satellite (and other satellite) arrays, this paper presents clear evidence of haplotypic evolution of the Y chromosome subset of alpha satellite. The approaches used should be valuable for the analysis of other DNA families, as well as other alpha satellite subsets located on different chromosomes.

Genomic Analysis of Sequence Variation in Tandemly Repeated DNA: Evidence for Localized Homogeneous Sequence Domains Within Arrays of Alpha Satellite DNA
-
of outstanding interest, This study presents clear evidence supporting mechanisms of homogenization occurring along haplotypic lines within local areas of alpha satellite arrays. The paper is of interest because it defines intra-array domains of sequence variation which may represent transition states in the spreading and fixation of mutations. The paper also describes a novel two-dimensional gel method for examining sequence organization within multicopy DNA families.

Role of Acrocentric Cen-pter Satellite DNA in Robertsonian Translocation and Chromosomal Non-disjunction
-
of interest, This review summarizes the complicated interrelationships of satellite DNA subsets on the acrocentric chromosomes. It presents the hypothesis that shared subsets may lead to the abnormal chromosome pairing events that underlie Robertsonian translocations involving these chromosomes.

Identification of Two Distinct Subfamilies of Alpha Satellite DNA that are Highly Specific for Human Chromosome 15
-
of interest, This study describes subsets of alpha satellite that are specific for chromosomes 15. The work is of interest, because it contains the first clear demonstration of chromosome-specific arrays on an acrocentric chromosome (similar to those found on many of the non-acrocentrics). In apparent contrast to chromosome 15, the other acrocentrics have either no chromosome-specific alpha satellite or only small, as yet poorly defined subsets.

Concerted Evolution of Primate Alpha Satellite DNA Evidence for an Ancestral Sequence Shared by Gorilla and Human X Chromosome Alpha Satellite
-
of outstanding interest, The first detailed analysis of a subset of alpha satellite from a non-human primate, this paper documents an ancestral relationship between human and gorilla X-chromosome alpha satellite. The study provides a detailed comparison of sequences in the two species and generates the first estimate of human-gorilla sequence divergence in the alpha satellite family.

A Chimpanzee Derived Chromosome-specific Alpha Satellite DNA Sequence Conserved Between Chimpanzee and Human
-
of interest, This paper is of interest since it uses in situ hybridization to document the existence of related alpha satellite subsets in the chimpanzee genome that appear to be homologous to the four human subsets belonging to suprachromosomal subfamily 3. This strongly suggests that the establishment of subfamily 3 and its dispersal to four chromosomes predates the human-chimpanzee-gorilla split.

A Survey of the Genomic Distribution of Alpha Satellite DNA on all Human Chromosomes, and Derivation of a New Consensus Sequence
-
of interest, The most recent update of a 171 bp human alpha satellite consensus sequence, based on sequences of nearly 300 monomers from all 24 types of human chromosome. Demonstrates a remarkable degree of conservation for human alpha satellite overall, as predicted for concerted evolution, although many positions within the monomer consensus show fixed or nearly fixed chromosome-specific, subfamily-specific, or subtype-specific changes.
