Abstract excerpt
Telomeres are the protective ends of linear chromosomes. Telomeric components have been identified and described by their abilities to bind telomeric DNA, affect telomere repeat length, participate in telomeric DNA replication, or modulate transcriptional silencing of telomere-adjacent genes; however, their roles in chromosome end protection are not as well defined. We have developed a genetic, quantitative assay...
