A better understanding of risk factors for adverse outcomes may improve clinical management in these patients. We therefore studied baseline characteristics of HM patients developing COVID-19 and analyzed predictors of mortality. Methods: The survey was supported by the Scientific Wor...
Mutations in CTC1, Encoding Conserved Telomere Maintenance Component 1, Cause C...
Anderson, B; Kasher, P; Mayer, J; Szynkiewicz, M; Jenkinson, E; Bhaskar, S; Urquhart, J; Daly, S; Dickerson, J; O'Sullivan, J; Leibundgut, E; Muter, JCoats plus is a highly pleiotropic disorder particularly affecting the eye, brain, bone and gastrointestinal tract. Here, we show that Coats plus results from mutations in CTC1, encoding conserved telomere maintenance component 1, a member of the mammalian homolog of the yeast heterotrimeric CST telomeric capping complex. Consistent with the observation of shortened telomeres in an Arabidopsis CTC1 mutant and t...
