GGGCTA repeats can fold into hairpins poorly unfolded by replication protein A: a possible origin of the length-dependent instability of GGGCTA variant repeats in human telomeres
Human telomeres are composed of GGGTTA repeats and interspersed with variant repeats. The GGGCTA variant motif was identified in the proximal regions of human telomeres about 10 years ago and was shown to display a length-dependent instability. In parallel, a structural study showed that four GGGCTA...
