Abstract excerpt
The shelterin protein TPP1 is involved in both recruiting telomerase and stimulating telomerase processivity in human cells. Assessing the in vivo significance of the latter role of TPP1 has been difficult, because TPP1 mutations that perturb telomerase function tend to abolish both telomerase recruitment and processivity. The Saccharomyces cerevisiae telomerase-associated Est3 protein adopts a protein fold...
