The terminal region of a linear chromosome that includes the telomeric DNA repeats and associated proteins. A complex of DNA and protein located at the end of a linear chromosome that protects and stabilizes a linear chromosome. A structure composed of a very long molecule of DNA and associated proteins (e.g. histones) that carries hereditary information. The terminal region of a polytene chromosome. A constituent part of an intracellular organelle, an organized structure of distinctive morphology and function, occurring within the cell. Includes constituent parts of the nucleus, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles, vesicles, ribosomes and the cytoskeleton but excludes the plasma membrane. Any constituent part of a chromosome, a structure composed of a very long molecule of DNA and associated proteins (e.g. histones) that carries hereditary information. Heterochromatic regions of the chromosome found at the telomeres. The terminal region of a linear chromosome in the nucleus that includes the telomeric DNA repeats and associated proteins. A complex of DNA and protein located at the end of a linear chromosome that enables replication of the telomeric repeat sequences at the end of a linear chromosome.
