    High-throughput telomere length measurement at nucleotide resolution using the PacBio high fidelity sequencing platform

    Telomeres are specialized nucleoprotein structures at the ends of linear chromosomes. The progressive shortening of steady-state telomere length in normal human somatic cells is a promising biomarker for age-a...

    HoxC5 and miR-615-3p target newly evolved genomic regions to repress hTERT and inhibit tumorigenesis

    The repression of telomerase activity during cellular differentiation promotes replicative aging and functions as a physiological barrier for tumorigenesis in long-lived mammals, including humans. However, the...
