Trf1 is not required for proliferation or functional telomere maintenance in chicken DT40 cells [PDF]
© 2009 by The American Society for Cell Biology.The telomere end-protection complex prevents the ends of linear eukaryotic chromosomes from degradation or inappropriate DNA repair. The homodimeric double-stranded DNA-binding protein, Trf1, is a component

Childhood obesity is associated with shorter leukocyte telomere length [PDF]
CONTEXT: Obesity in adults is associated with shorter mean leukocyte telomere length (LTL), a marker of biological age that is also associated with age-related conditions including cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. However, studies of childhood

Telomere Length and Physical Performance at Older Ages: An Individual Participant Meta-Analysis [PDF]
Background Telomeres are involved in cellular ageing and shorten with increasing age. If telomere length is a valuable biomarker of ageing, then telomere shortening should be associated with worse physical performance, an ageing trait, but evidence ...

Measuring telomere length and telomere dynamics in evolutionary biology and ecology [PDF]
Telomeres play a fundamental role in the protection of chromosomal DNA and in the regulation of cellular senescence. Recent work in human epidemiology and evolutionary ecology suggests adult telomere length (TL) may reflect past physiological stress and ...

Sir4 Deficiency Reverses Cell Senescence by Sub-Telomere Recombination
Telomere shortening results in cellular senescence and the regulatory mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we report that the sub-telomere regions facilitate telomere lengthening by homologous recombination, thereby attenuating senescence in yeast ...

Circulating leukocyte telomere length is highly heritable among families of Arab descent [PDF]
Background Telomere length, an indicator of ageing and longevity, has been correlated with several biomarkers of cardiometabolic disease in both Arab children and adults.

In fishes, as in other vertebrate species, the DNA component of the telomeres consists of the tandemly repeated TTAGGG motif. The length of the telomeric arrays in fishes ranges from 2 to 25 kb and shortens with age in some of the species. To date, chromosomal distribution of the telomeric DNA sequences has been examined in approximately 80 fish ...

TP53 R249S mutation in hepatic organoids captures the predisposing cancer risk
The systematic approach in elucidating the gain‐of‐function (GOF) roles of TP53 mutations in early liver carcinogenesis. Unique downstream targets of TP53 L3 mutations were identified from chormatin immunoprecipitation sequencing in HCC cell lines, followed by a series of validation assays to substantiate the exclusive transcriptional regulations ...
