Genome-wide association study of relative telomere length.

Genome-wide association study of relative telomere length.

Telomere function is essential to maintaining the physical integrity of linear chromosomes and healthy human aging. The probability of forming proper telomere structures depends on the length of the telomeric DNA tract. We attempted to identify common genetic variants associated with log relative te...
