TGS1 mediates 2,2,7-trimethyl guanosine capping of the human telomerase RNA to direct telomerase dependent telomere maintenance

Telomerase protects chromosome ends in stem cells and cancer cells. Here the authors show that Trimethylguaonsine Synthase 1 (TGS-1) – dependent trimethylguanosine capping of the RNA component of the human telomerase complex has an important role in directing telomere dependent telomere maintenance...
