Werner syndrome RECQ helicase participates in and directs maintenance of the protein complexes of constitutive heterochromatin in proliferating human cells
2024-01-30
Abstract excerpt
The WRN RECQ helicase is responsible for the Werner syndrome of premature aging and cancer predisposition. Substantial progress has been made in delineating WRN functions in multiple aspects of DNA metabolism, including DNA replication, repair, transcription, and telomere maintenance. Nevertheless, a complete mechanistic understanding of how loss of WRN accelerates aging in humans has not been achieved yet. Here w...
