4.7 Telomere Finder

4.7.1 Usage

The Telomere Finder tool in PlanT2T helps users identify the telomere regions in the genome. The telomere is the end of a chromosome, which is essential for maintaining the stability of the chromosome and preventing the loss of genetic information. The telomere is composed of a series of repetitive DNA sequences, such as CCCTAAA in plants. So, the telomere can be predicted by searching for the telomere sequence in the genome. Here, we screened the CCCTAAA sequence in the end of the chromosome for plant. If the repeat count is greater than 20, we consider it as a telomere.
