Investigation of deleterious effects of nsSNPs in the POT1 gene: a structural genomics‐based approach to understand the mechanism of cancer development
16 Dec 2018
Abstract excerpt
Protection of telomere 1 (POT1) is one of the key components of shelterin complex, implicated in maintaining the telomere homeostasis, and thus stability of the eukaryotic genome. A large number of non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (nsSNPs) in the POT1 gene have been reported to cause varieties of human diseases, including cancer. In recent years, a number of mutations in POT1 has been markedly...
