Structural studies on proteins involved in human telomere maintenance
In order to sustain genomic stability and cellular viability, the ends of linear eukaryotic chromosomes are capped and protected by telomeres. The mechanism by which the length of telomeric DNA is maintained involves a specialized reverse transcriptase, called telomerase. This thesis focuses on t...
