POT1 Association with TRF2 Regulates Telomere Length
3 Aug 2009
Abstract excerpt
Deleting the OB folds encoding the telomeric single-stranded DNA (ssDNA)-binding activity of the human telomeric protein POT1 induces significant telomere elongation, suggesting that at least one critical aspect of the regulation of telomere length is disrupted by this POT1(DeltaOB) mutant protein. POT1 is known to associate with two proteins through the protein interaction domain retained in POT1(DeltaOB)-the...
