A band of 300 nucleotide long duplex DNA is released by treating renatured repeated human DNA with the single strand-specific endonuclease S1. Since many of the interspersed repeated sequences in human DNA are 300 nucleotides long, this band should be enriched in such repeats. The nucleotide sequences of 15 clones constructed from these 300 nucleotide S1-resistant repeats were determined. Ten of these cloned sequences are members of the Alu family of interspersed repeats. These 10 sequences share a recognizable consensus sequence from which individual clones have an average divergence of 12.8%. The 300 nucleotide Alu family consensus sequence has a dimeric structure and was evidently formed from a head to tail duplication of an ancestral monomeric sequence. Three of the remaining clones are variations on a simple pentanucleotide sequence previously reported for human satellite III DNA. Two of the 15 clones have distinct and complex sequences and may represent other families of interspersed repeated sequences.
