Abstract excerpt
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Cdc13p is a single-stranded TG(1-3) DNA binding protein that protects telomeres and maintains telomere length. A mutant allele of CDC13, cdc13-1, causes accumulation of single-stranded TG(1-3) DNA near telomeres along with a G(2)/M cell cycle arrest at non-permissive temperatures. We report here that when the single-stranded TG(1-3) DNA is masked by its binding proteins, such as S....
