Human Gene Set: GOBP_TELOMERE_CAPPING

For the Mouse gene set with the same name, see GOBP_TELOMERE_CAPPING

Standard name GOBP_TELOMERE_CAPPING
Systematic name M10586
Brief description A process in which telomeres are protected from degradation and fusion, thereby ensuring chromosome stability by protecting the ends from both degradation and from being recognized as damaged DNA. May be mediated by specific single- or double-stranded telomeric DNA binding proteins. [GOC:mah, GOC:rn, PMID:11349150, PMID:11352055]
