Abstract excerpt
The ribonucleoprotein complex telomerase is critical for replenishing chromosome-end sequence during eukaryotic DNA replication. The template for the addition of telomeric repeats is provided by the RNA component of telomerase. However, in budding yeast, little is known about the structure and function of most of the remainder of the telomerase RNA. Here, we report the identification of a paired element located...
