Exploring TRF2-Dependent DNA Distortion Through Single-DNA Manipulation Studies
Abstract TRF2 is a component of shelterin, a telomere-specific protein complex that protects the ends of mammalian chromosomes from DNA damage signaling and improper repair. TRF2 functions as a homodimer and its interaction with telomeric DNA has been studied, but its full-length DNA-binding propert...
