Abstract: Telomeres are regions of repetitive nucleotide sequences capping the ends of eukaryotic chromosomes that protect against deterioration, and whose lengths can be correlated with age and adverse health risk factors. Yet, given their length and… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Molecules"

DOI: 10.3390/molecules24081578

Abstract: G-quadruplex (G4) DNA secondary structures formed in human telomeres have been shown to inhibit cancer-specific telomerase and alternative lengthening of telomere (ALT) pathways. Thus, human telomeric G-quadruplexes are considered attractive targets for anticancer drugs. Human… read more here.
