A Spectrum of Severe Familial Liver Disorders Associate with Telomerase Mutations
BACKGROUND: Telomerase is an enzyme specialized in maintaining telomere lengths in highly proliferative cells. Loss-of-function mutations cause critical telomere shortening and are associated with the bone marrow failure syndromes dyskeratosis congenita and aplastic anemia and with idiopathic pulmon...
