19. WRN or the Bloom syndrome helicase (BLM) stimulates DNA polymerase delta progression across telomeric G-rich repeats, only WRN promotes sequential strand displacement synthesis and FEN1 cleavage. PMID: 27849570
20. This study identified residues in the WRN RQC domain that are involved specifically in the interaction with G-quadruplex DNA. PMID: 28069813
21. findings indicate that WRN interacts with HDACs 1 and 2 to facilitate activity of stalled replication forks under conditions of replication stress. PMID: 27672210

25. The CC genotype of WRN rs1346044 may contribute to an increased risk and a premature onset of breast cancer. PMID: 26690424
26. Japanese subjects bearing at least one A allele of rs2230009 of the WRN gene are at a significantly higher risk of femoral fracture, possibly due to decreased bone density. PMID: 25637295
