Telomerase activity is associated with an increase in DNA methylation at the proximal subtelomere and a reduction in telomeric transcription
Tumours and immortalized cells avoid telomere attrition by using either the ribonucleoprotein enzyme telomerase or a recombination-based alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT) mechanism. Available evidence from mice suggests that the epigenetic state of the telomere may influence the mechanism o...
