Homoiterons and expansion in ribosomal RNAs

Homoiterons and expansion in ribosomal RNAs

Ribosomal RNAs in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes feature numerous repeats of three or more nucleotides with the same nucleobase (homoiterons). In prokaryotes these repeats are much more frequent in thermophile compared to mesophile or psychrophile species, and have similar frequency in both large R...
