A compact and highly condensed form of chromatin. The terminal region of a linear chromosome that includes the telomeric DNA repeats and associated proteins. The ordered and organized complex of DNA and protein that forms the chromosome in the nucleus. A condensed form of chromatin, occurring in the nucleus during interphase, that stains strongly with basophilic dyes. The DNA of heterochromatin is typically replicated at a later stage in the cell-division cycle than euchromatin. Any constituent part of a nuclear chromosome, a chromosome found in the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell. Heterochromatic regions of the chromosome found at the telomeres of a chromosome in the nucleus. 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.
