Dyskerin expression influences the level of ribosomal RNA pseudo‐uridylation and telomerase RNA component in human breast cancer
13 Jul 2006
Abstract excerpt
Dyskerin is a nucleolar protein, altered in dyskeratosis congenita, which carries out two separate functions, both fundamental for proliferating cells. One function is the pseudo-uridylation of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) molecules, necessary for their processing, and the other is the stabilization of the telomerase RNA component, necessary for telomerase activity. A significant feature of dyskeratosis congenita is an...
