A role for Separase in telomere protection [PDF]

, 2016
Drosophila telomeres are elongated by transposition of specialized retroelements rather than telomerase activity and are assembled independently of the sequence. Fly telomeres are protected by the terminin complex that localizes and functions exclusively

Nuclear Entanglement: New Insights Into the Role of Cytoskeleton and Nucleoskeleton in Plant Nuclear Function

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Of the three types of cytoskeleton known in animals—actin, microtubules, and intermediate filaments—only actin and microtubules exist in plants. Both play important roles in cellular shaping, organelle movement, organization of the endomembrane system, and cell signaling.

Identification of hnRNP A3 as a novel telomere‐binding protein

The FASEB Journal, 2006
Telomere is a specialized DNA‐protein structure at the end of linear chromosomes. Human telomeric DNA consists of hundreds to thousands of tandemly repeated hexanucleotides (TTAGGG) and is bound by telomere‐associated proteins to form specialized structure that maintains the integrity of chromosome.

Titin Is Present in the Elastic Tethers That Connect Separating Anaphase Chromosomes in Crane‐Fly Spermatocytes

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Elastic tethers connect telomeres of separating chromosomes in anaphase of animal cells. Immunofluorescence staining of titin in crane‐fly spermatocytes, using 4 different antibodies, shows that the giant elastic protein titin seems to be a component of mitotic tethers: titin “strands” extend between separating chromosomes, connecting their ...

Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1059-1080, April 2025.
Abstract Systemic aging influences various physiological processes and contributes to structural and functional decline in cardiac tissue. These alterations include an increased incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, a decline in left ventricular diastolic function, left atrial dilation, atrial fibrillation, myocardial fibrosis and cardiac ...

NONO, SFPQ, and PSPC1 promote telomerase recruitment to the telomere

Nature Communications
Telomerase is a ribonucleoprotein enzyme that maintains telomeric repeats on chromosome ends in continuously dividing cells. Telomere maintenance via telomerase is dependent on the correct assembly of the enzyme complex, complex stabilization by ...

Telomere Function and the G-Quadruplex Formation are Regulated by hnRNP U

Cells, 2019
We examine the role of the heterogenous ribonucleoprotein U (hnRNP U) as a G-quadruplex binding protein in human cell lines. Hypothesizing that hnRNP U is associated with telomeres, we investigate what other telomere-related functions it may have ...

The role of Schizosaccharomyces pombe SUMO ligases in genome stability [PDF]

, 2007
SUMOylation is a post-translational modification that affects a large number of proteins, many of which are nuclear. While the role of SUMOylation is beginning to be elucidated, it is clear that understanding the mechanisms that regulate the process is ...
