Human CST Prefers G-Rich but Not Necessarily Telomeric Sequences
20 Jul 2017
Abstract excerpt
The human CST (CTC1-STN1-TEN1) heterotrimeric complex plays roles in both telomere maintenance and DNA replication through its ability to interact with single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) of a variety of sequences. The precise sequence specificity required to execute these functions is unknown. Telomere-binding proteins have been shown to specifically recognize key telomeric sequence motifs within ssDNA while...
