Telomere-Telomere Recombination Is an Efficient Bypass Pathway for Telomere Maintenance in <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i>
1 Dec 1999
Abstract excerpt
Many Saccharomyces telomeres bear one or more copies of the repetitive Y' element followed by approximately 350 bp of telomerase-generated C(1-3)A/TG(1-3) repeats. Although most cells lacking a gene required for the telomerase pathway die after 50 to 100 cell divisions, survivors arise spontaneously in such cultures. These survivors have one of two distinct patterns of telomeric DNA (V. Lundblad and E. H....
