TeloTool: a new tool for telomere length measurement from terminal restriction fragment analysis with improved probe intensity correction

Abstract excerpt

Telomeres comprise the protective caps of natural chromosome ends and function in the suppression of DNA damage signaling and cellular senescence. Therefore, techniques used to determine telomere length are important in a number of studies, ranging from those investigating telomeric structure to effects on human disease. Terminal restriction fragment (TRF) analysis has for a long time shown to be one of the most...
