  • In spite of the mutagenicity associated with NHEJ, its fast kinetics has a unique role in safeguarding genome integrity, particularly by suppressing chromosomal translocations [ 15 ]. (springeropen.com)
  • Rapidly dividing mouse pluripotent stem cells are highly transcriptionally active and experience elevated replication stress, yet paradoxically maintain genome integrity. (bvsalud.org)
  • In somatic cells, the activity of telomerase, a reverse transcriptase that can elongate telomeric repeats, is usually diminished after birth so that the telomere length is gradually shortened with cell divisions, and triggers cellular senescence. (nature.com)
  • Telomerase can add telomeric repeats onto the chromosome ends, and prevents the replication-dependent loss of telomere and cellular senescence in highly proliferative cells of the germline and in the majority of cancers ( Blasco, 2005 ). (nature.com)
  • DNA replication is the primary event that regulates cellular and viral proliferation. (nih.gov)
