POT-1 telomere binding protein promotes a novel form of Transgenerational Epigenetic Inheritance

2019-06-30

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Transgenerational Epigenetic Inheritance occurs when gametes transmit forms of information without altering genomic DNA 1 . Although deficiency for telomerase in human families causes transgenerational shortening of telomeres 2 , a role for telomeres in Transgenerational Epigenetic Inheritance is unknown. Here we show that Protection Of Telomeres 1 (Pot1) proteins, which interact with single-st...
