Difference between Locus (genetics) and Telomere

Locus (genetics) vs. Telomere

A locus (plural loci) in genetics is a fixed position on a chromosome, like the position of a gene or a marker (genetic marker). A telomere is a region of repetitive nucleotide sequences at each end of a chromosome, which protects the end of the chromosome from deterioration or from fusion with neighboring chromosomes.

Similarities between Locus (genetics) and Telomere

Locus (genetics) and Telomere have 3 things in common (in Unionpedia): Centromere, Chromosome, Gene.

Centromere

The centromere is the specialized DNA sequence of a chromosome that links a pair of sister chromatids (a dyad).

Chromosome

A chromosome (from Ancient Greek: χρωμόσωμα, chromosoma, chroma means colour, soma means body) is a DNA molecule with part or all of the genetic material (genome) of an organism.
