Telomeric sequences can be written in the general form Cn(A/T)m, where n >1 and m is 1 to 4.

TTAGGG repeats with size of 3–20-kb are telomeres of human chromosomes.

Telomeric sequence is the extension of the G-T–rich strand, which for 14 to 16 bases is usually a single strand.

G-tail is probably generated because there is a specific limited degradation of the C-A–rich strand.

Drosophila telomeres are an exception, consisting of terminal arrays of retrotransposons.

Telomeres cluster on the nuclear envelope just prior to homologous chromosome synapsis during meiosis.
