Recruitment to telomeres is a pivotal step in the function and regulation of human telomerase; however, the molecular basis for recruitment is not known. Here, we have directly investigated the process of telomerase recruitment via fluorescence in situ hyb ...
Budding yeast telomeres are reversibly bound at the nuclear envelope through two partially redundant pathways that involve the Sir2/3/4 silencing complex and the Yku70/80 heterodimer(1,2). To better understand how this is regulated, we studied the role of ...
Telomerase is the ribonucleoprotein enzyme that elongates telomeres to counteract telomere shortening. The core enzyme consists of a reverse transcriptase protein subunit and an RNA subunit. The RNA subunit contains a short region that is used as a templat ...
Homologous recombination is a high-fidelity DNA repair pathway. Besides a critical role in accurate chromosome segregation during meiosis, recombination functions in DNA repair and in the recovery of stalled or broken replication forks to ensure genomic st ...
Phosphorylation of H2AX (gamma H2AX) is an early sign of DNA damage induced by replication stalling. However, the role of H2AX in the repair of this type of DNA damage is still unclear. In this study, we used an inactivated adeno-associated virus (AAV) to ...
DNA photolyase is a highly efficient light-driven enzyme that repairs the UV-induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer in damaged DNA. Herein, we investigate the repair reaction of the thymine dimer by means of hybrid quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical QM/ ...
Vertebrate telomeres are transcribed into telomeric repeat-containing RNA (TERRA) that associates with telomeres and may be important for telomere function. Here, we demonstrate that telomeres are also transcribed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by RNA polymer ...
Telomerase is required for telomere maintenance and is responsible for the immortal phenotype of cancer cells. How telomerase is assembled and reaches telomeres in the context of nuclear architecture is not understood. Recently, the telomerase RNA subunit ...
In a recent issue of Molecular Cell, Bonetti et al. (2009) identify in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae that the molecular activities that generate 3' overhangs at telomeric DNA ends are the same as those that resect DNA at double-strand breaks. ...
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, TBF1, an essential gene, influences telomere function but also has other roles in the global regulation of transcription. We have identified a new member of the tbf1 gene family in the mammalian pathogen Pneumocystis carinii. W ...
