Defective Inhibition of DNA Recombination at Telomere Due to DAXX Mutations
Click the image above or here to open this pathway in the Pathway Browser

A small portion of tumors that are positive for alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT) markers and negative for mutations in the ATRX gene harbor loss-of-function mutations in the DAXX gene, which encodes the ATRX binding partner DAXX. For review, please refer to Gocha et al. 2013, and Pickett and Reddel 2015.
