Telomeres, the specialized nucleoproteic complexes localized at the physical ends of linear eukaryotic chromosomes, play a fundamental role in maintaining chromosomal stability and integrity, being one of the leading ...

We analyzed chromosomal aberrations involving telomeres in the progeny of mammalian cells exposed to the methylating agent and antineoplastic/diabetogenic drug streptozotocin (STZ), to test whether it induces long-term ...

Telomeres are the physical ends of eukaryotic linear chromosomes. Telomeres form special structures that cap chromosome ends to prevent degradation by nucleolytic attack and to distinguish chromosome termini from DNA ...

Telomeres are specialized nucleoproteic complexes localized at the ends of eukaryotic chromosomes, that maintain their stability and integrity. They protect chromosome ends from fusion and from being recognized as sites ...

Background: Telomeres are specialized structures at the end of chromosomes essential for maintaining genome stability and cell viability. The importance of telomeric proteins for telomere maintenance has increased our ...
