MeSH Heading: Shelterin Complex
Tree Number(s): A11.284.430.106.279.345.190.160.845.500; D05.500.918; D12.776.260.735.625; D12.776.660.235.700.625; D12.776.664.981; G05.360.160.845.500
Unique ID: D000089804
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D000089804
Scope Note: A TELOMERE cap complex consisting of telomere-specific proteins in association with telomeric DNA such as telomeric dsDNA-sDNA junction. They are involved in the protection of chromosome ends and TELOMERASE regulation and play a role in CELLULAR SENESCENCE and ageing-related pathology. In general it consists of six mostly TELOMERE-BINDING PROTEINS (POT1, RAP1, TIN2, TPP1, TRF1, and TRF2).
Entry Term(s): CST Complex; Ctc1-Stn1-Ten1 Complex; POT1-TPP1 Shelterin Complex; Telomere Cap Complex; Telomere POT1-TPP1 Complex; Telomeric Capping Complex; Telomeric Stn1-Ten1 Capping Complex; Telosome
