Quantitative telomeric chromatin isolation protocol for human cells

Joachim Lingner, Sophie Redon, Jana Majerská

The ends of eukaryotic chromosomes, known as telomeres, consist of repetitive DNA sequences, multiple proteins and noncoding RNAs. Telomeres are dynamic structures that play crucial roles as guardians of genome stability and tumor suppressors. Defects in t ...

The telomeric DNA damage response occurs in the absence of chromatin decompaction

Joachim Lingner, Suliana Manley, Verena Pfeiffer, Aleksandra Vancevska, Kyle Michael Douglass

Telomeres are specialized nucleoprotein structures that protect chromosome ends from DNA damage response (DDR) and DNA rearrangements. The telomeric shelterin protein TRF2 suppresses the DDR, and this function has been attributed to its abilities to trigge ...

Peroxiredoxin 1 Protects Telomeres from Oxidative Damage and Preserves Telomeric DNA for Extension by Telomerase

Joachim Lingner, Viesturs Simanis, Sophie Redon, Wareed Ahmed, Eric Aeby

Oxidative damage of telomeres can promote cancer, cardiac failure, and muscular dystrophy. Specific mechanisms protecting telomeres from oxidative damage have not been described. We analyzed telomeric chromatin composition during the cell cycle and show th ...

Cerium oxide nanoparticles, combining antioxidant and UV shielding properties, prevent UV-induced cell damage and mutagenesis

Andrzej Sienkiewicz, Fanny Caputo

Efficient inorganic UV shields, mostly based on refracting TiO2 particles, have dramatically changed the sun exposure habits. Unfortunately, health concerns have emerged from the pro-oxidant photocatalytic effect of UV-irradiated TiO2, which mediates toxic ...

No DDRama at chromosome ends: TRF2 takes centre stage

Antonio Porro, Liuh-Yow Chen, Sascha Feuerhahn

Telomeres are nucleoprotein structures capping the natural termini of eukaryotic linear chromosomes. Telomeres possess an inherent ability to circumvent the activation of a full-blown DNA damage response (DDR), and hence fusion reactions, by limiting inapp ...

Molecular basis of telomere syndrome caused by CTC1 mutations

Joachim Lingner, Liuh-Yow Chen, Jana Majerská

Mutations in CTC1 lead to the telomere syndromes Coats Plus and dyskeratosis congenita (DC), but the molecular mechanisms involved remain unknown. CTC1 forms with STN1 and TEN1 a trimeric complex termed CST, which binds ssDNA, promotes telomere DNA synthes ...

A quantitative telomeric chromatin isolation protocol identifies different telomeric states

Joachim Lingner, Romain Hamelin, Eric Aeby, Larissa Grolimund, Florence Armand, Diego Chiappe, Marc Moniatte

Telomere composition changes during tumourigenesis, aging and in telomere syndromes in a poorly defined manner. Here we develop a quantitative telomeric chromatin isolation protocol (QTIP) for human cells, in which chromatin is cross-linked, immunopurified ...

A Quantitative Telomeric Chromatin Isolation Protocol (Q-TIP) to Characterize Telomere Composition Changes

Larissa Grolimund

Telomeres protect linear ends of eukaryotic chromosomes by preventing chromosomal end-to-end fusions and telomere attrition. They consist of repetitive DNA sequences, telomeric repeat containing RNAs (TERRAs) and proteins. Telomeres play a crucial role in ...

TERRA Promotes Telomere Shortening through Exonuclease 1-Mediated Resection of Chromosome Ends

Joachim Lingner, Verena Pfeiffer

The long noncoding telomeric repeat containing RNA (TERRA) is expressed at chromosome ends. TERRA upregulation upon experimental manipulation or in ICF (immunodeficiency, centromeric instability, facial anomalies) patients correlates with short telomeres. ...

Insight into the Regulation of Telomerase Access to Telomeres by Shelterin Proteins

Elena Aritonovska

Recruitment to telomeres is a pivotal step in the function and regulation of human telomerase. Impaired telomerase function can lead to premature organismal aging, development of cancer and multisystem disorders such as dyskeratosis congenita. Telomerase a ...
