Variable telomeric repeat synthesis in Paramecium tetraurelia is consistent with misincorporation by telomerase.

The EMBO journal - 2 Jun 1997

McCormick-Graham M, Haynes W J, Romero D P

Abstract excerpt

Telomeric DNA at the ends of chromosomes consist of short, tandem repeat sequences. The telomeres of Paramecium tetraurelia are made up of variable repeats, whereas Paramecium caudatum telomeric repeats are largely invariant. To investigate variable repeat synthesis in P. tetraurelia, mutated telomerase RNA genes were expressed in vivo. We demonstrate that the P. caudatum telomerase RNA can participate in...
