Mechanism and substrate specificity of telomeric protein POT1 stimulation of the Werner syndrome helicase

Loss of the RecQ helicase WRN protein causes the cancer-prone progeroid disorder Werner syndrome (WS). WS cells exhibit defects in DNA replication and telomere preservation. The telomeric single-stranded binding protein POT1 stimulates WRN helicase to unwind longer telomeric duplexes that are otherw...
