Telomeres are protected and maintained by telomere-specific proteins. In addition, proteins involved in DNA repair, such as Mre11-Rad50-Nbs1 complex, RPA, and RecQ helicase, are also involved in telomere maintenance. In this review, the roles of these proteins in telomere maintenance and their functional relationships to the telomere-specific proteins will be discussed.
端粒由端粒特异性蛋白保护和维持。此外,参与DNA修复的蛋白,如Mre11-Rad50-Nbs1复合物、RPA和RecQ解旋酶,也参与端粒的维持。在这篇综述中,将讨论这些蛋白在端粒维持中的作用以及它们与端粒特异性蛋白的功能关系。
