General description

66 kDa
TRF2 is a ubiquitously expressed protein that is implicated in the control of telomere length. TRF2, like TRF1, contains a Myb-related DNA binding motif. It binds to duplex TTAGGG repeats and is localised to all human telomeres in metaphase chromosomes. TRF2 is thought to protect chromosome ends by maintaining the correct structure at telomere termini. The use of mutant forms of TRF2 has implicated a role for TRF2 in the prevention of senescence in primary human cells. Recently, it has been shown that inhibition of TRF2 resulted in apoptosis in a subset of mammalian cell types. TRF2 is overexpressed in a number of human tumors and overexpression of TRF2 has been shown to be oncogenic in a mouse model of carcinogenesis.

Shaping Epigenetics Discovery - Epigenetics Product Selection Brochure

"Epigenetics describes heritable changes in gene expression caused by non-genetic mechanisms instead of by alterations in DNA sequence. These changes can be cell- or tissue-specific, and can be passed on to multiple generations. Epigenetic regulation enriches DNAbased information, allowing a cell to vary its response across diverse biological and environmental contexts. Although epigenetic mechanisms are primarily centered in the nucleus, these mechanisms can be induced by environmental signals such as hormones, nutrients, stress, and cellular damage, pointing to the involvement of cytoplasmic and extracellular factors in epigenetic regulation."
