    Summary
    Enables single-stranded telomeric DNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within chromosome organization. Located in chromosome, telomeric region. Part of nuclear telomere cap complex. Is expressed in several structures, including basisphenoid bone; brain; genitourinary system; musculature; and otic capsule. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in colorectal cancer; familial melanoma; hepatocellular carcinoma; lung cancer; and ovarian cancer. Orthologous to human POT1 (protection of telomeres 1).

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
