Telomeres are the physical ends of eukaryotic chromosomes. They protect chromosome ends from DNA degradation, recombination, and DNA end fusions, and they are important for nuclear architecture. Telomeres provide a mechanism for their replication by semico ...

The long noncoding telomeric repeat containing RNA (TERRA) is expressed at chromosome ends. TERRA upregulation upon experimental manipulation or in ICF (immunodeficiency, centromeric instability, facial anomalies) patients correlates with short telomeres. ...
Telomeres are the DNA/RNA/protein structures at the end of linear eukaryotic chromosomes, which protect them against the DNA damage repair machinery, preventing chromosome end-to-end fusions and aberrant recombination. Moreover, telomeres compensate for th ...
Telomeres, the ends of linear eukaryotic chromosomes, shorten due to incomplete DNA replication and nucleolytic degradation. Cells counteract this shortening by employing a specialized reverse transcriptase called telomerase, which uses deoxyribonucleoside ...
Telomeres protect linear ends of eukaryotic chromosomes by preventing chromosomal end-to-end fusions and telomere attrition. They consist of repetitive DNA sequences, telomeric repeat containing RNAs (TERRAs) and proteins. Telomeres play a crucial role in ...
Telomerase is responsible for the immortal phenotype of cancer cells and telomerase inhibition may specifically target cancer cell proliferation. Ligands able to selectively bind to G-quadruplex telomeric DNA have been considered as telomerase inhibitors b ...
Recruitment to telomeres is a pivotal step in the function and regulation of human telomerase. Impaired telomerase function can lead to premature organismal aging, development of cancer and multisystem disorders such as dyskeratosis congenita. Telomerase a ...
Mutations in CTC1 lead to the telomere syndromes Coats Plus and dyskeratosis congenita (DC), but the molecular mechanisms involved remain unknown. CTC1 forms with STN1 and TEN1 a trimeric complex termed CST, which binds ssDNA, promotes telomere DNA synthes ...
Telomeric DNA at eukaryotic chromosome ends terminates with single stranded 3' G-rich overhangs. The overhang is generated by the interplay of several dynamic processes including semiconservative DNA replication, 3' end elongation by telomerase, C-strand f ...
Recruitment to telomeres is a pivotal step in the function and regulation of human telomerase; however, the molecular basis for recruitment is not known. Here, we have directly investigated the process of telomerase recruitment via fluorescence in situ hyb ...
