Hairpin Telomere Resolvases.

Microbiology spectrum - 1 Dec 2014

Kobryn Kerri, Chaconas George

Abstract excerpt

Covalently closed hairpin ends, also known as hairpin telomeres, provide an unusual solution to the end replication problem. The hairpin telomeres are generated from replication intermediates by a process known as telomere resolution. This is a DNA breakage and reunion reaction promoted by hairpin telomere resolvases (also referred to as protelomerases) found in a limited number of phage and bacteria. The...
