Abstract excerpt
Cdc13p is a specific single-stranded telomeric DNA-binding protein of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It is involved in protecting telomeres and regulating telomere length. The telomere-binding domain of Cdc13p is located between residues 497 and 693, and its structure has been resolved by NMR spectroscopy. A series of aromatic, hydrophobic and basic residues located at the DNA-binding surface of Cdc13p are involved in...
