Telomere length homeostasis and telomere position effect on a linear human artificial chromosome are dictated by the genetic background
Telomere position effect (TPE) is the influence of telomeres on subtelomeric epigenetic marks and gene expression. Previous studies suggested that TPE depends on genetic background. As these analyses were performed on different chromosomes, cell types and species, it remains unclear whether TPE repr...
