Disruption of Telomere Maintenance by Depletion of the MRE11/RAD50/NBS1 Complex in Cells That Use Alternative Lengthening of Telomeres
10 Aug 2007
Abstract excerpt
Immortalized human cells are able to maintain their telomeres by telomerase or by a recombination-mediated DNA replication mechanism known as alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT). We showed previously that overexpression of Sp100 protein can suppress ALT and that this was associated with sequestration of the MRE11/RAD50/NBS1 (MRN) recombination protein complex by Sp100. In the present study, we determined...
