The Time of Synthesis of Satellite DNA in Mouse Cells (L Cells)

Abstract
In mouse L cells growing in suspension and synchronized with 5-fluorodeoxyuridine, the ratio of the rate of synthesis of satellite DNA to that of major DNA reaches a peak 4 h after the onset of DNA synthesis. Since the duration of the period of DNA synthesis (the S-phase) under these conditions is shortened to about 4 h, the synthesis of satellite DNA occurs late in the S-phase.
