A novel mechanism for telomere size control in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Genes & development - 1 Jun 1996

Li B, Lustig A J

Abstract excerpt

One of the central requirements for eukaryotic chromosome stability is the maintenance of the simple sequence tracts at telomeres. In this study, we use genetic and physical assays to reveal the nature of a novel mechanism by which telomere length is controlled. This mechanism, telomeric rapid deletion (TRD), is capable of reducing elongated telomeres to wild-type tract length in an apparently single-division...
