Examples of telomere
telomere
These levels were compared to telomere length over a period of about five years.

Telomere length is one of the many measures being looked at in the Sister Study.
From the sciencedaily.com
Telomere length inversely correlates with pulse pressure and is highly familial.
From the nature.com
Carriers who remained on this regimen showed no evidence of telomere shortening.
From the sciencedaily.com
As participant age increased, telomere length became an even stronger predictor.
From the sciencedaily.com
People of the same chronological age can have vastly different telomere lengths.

Earlier research had shown DePinho that the telomere story was not a simple one.
From the sciencedaily.com
Telomere length was inversely correlated with the probability of disease relapse.
From the sciencedaily.com
Telomere length accounted for 14 percent of the SNP's effect on bladder cancer.

- Either (free) end of a eukaryotic chromosome; "telomeres act as caps to keep the sticky ends of chromosomes from randomly clumping together"
- (Telomeres) non-gene, highly repeated DNA sequences on the ends of chromosomes, that protect them from degradation. Telomeres are sensitive to UV radiation, and "fray" as the cell ages.

- (Telomeres) Sequences of nucleic acids extending from the ends of chromosomes (like caps). These caps shorten every time a cell divides, which is believed to lead to cellular damage. ...
- (Telomeres) Tail portion of chromosomes. They shrink and shed with each cell division. Their length gives some indication of the number of divisions a cell has undergone.
- (Telomeres) specialized DNA-protein structures that cap DNA (chormosome) ends. Telomeric structures are crucial for maintaining DNA integrity and rpeserving genome stability. Dysfunctional telomeres lead to genomic instability. ...
- (Telomeres) the long end sequences of a DNA strand occurring at the tip of the chromosomes that appear to be associated with replicative senescence.
- (telomeres) an extremity of a chromosome with specific properties. One of these properties prevents rejoining with any fragment of a broken chromosome. This is thought to affect the aging and eventual death of an individual. The telomeres become shorter as an animal ages.
- The ends of chromosomes. These specialized structures are involved in the replication and stability of linear DNA molecules. See DNA replication.
