Unveiling Telo-seq: New method for determining the length and sequence of telomeres on individual chromosomes
Within each of our cells, long strands of DNA are folded into chromosomes and capped with protective structures called telomeres. But telomeres shorten as we age, eventually getting so whittled down that our chromosomes become ...
