染色体末端保护对保护基因组完整性至关重要。端粒,位于染色体末端的重复DNA序列和相关蛋白质的片段,用于保护末端免于降解和不需要的双链断裂修复。由于端粒在保护基因组中的重要性质,许多独特的蛋白质已经进化以确保端粒长度和结构得以保留。不能正确维持端粒会导致先天性角化不良、肺纤维化和癌症等疾病。在这篇综述中,我们将讨论哺乳动物端粒相关蛋白的已知功能,它们在端粒复制和长度调节中的作用,以及这些过程与基因组不稳定性和人类疾病的关系。
Chromosome end protection is essential to protect genome integrity. Telomeres, tracts of repetitive DNA sequence and associated proteins located at the chromosomal terminus, serve to safeguard the ends from degradation and unwanted double strand break repair. Due to the essential nature of telomeres in protecting the genome, a number of unique proteins have evolved to ensure that telomere length and structure are preserved. The inability to properly maintain telomeres can lead to diseases such as dyskeratosis congenita, pulmonary fibrosis and cancer. In this review, we will discuss the known functions of mammalian telomere-associated proteins, their role in telomere replication and length regulation and how these processes relate to genome instability and human disease.
