Euplotes crassushas genes encoding telomere-binding proteins and telomere-binding protein homologs [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 1992 We have identified two 1.6 kb macronuclear DNA molecules from Euplotes crassus that hybridize to the alpha subunit of the Oxytricha telomere protein. We have shown that one of these molecules encodes the 51 kDa Euplotes telomere protein while the other appears to encode a homolog of the telomere protein.

HYPOTHESIS: PARALOG FORMATION FROM PROGENITOR PROTEINS AND PARALOG MUTAGENESIS SPUR THE RAPID EVOLUTION OF TELOMERE BINDING PROTEINS [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2016 Through elegant studies in fungal cells and complex organisms, we propose a unifying paradigm for the rapid evolution of telomere binding proteins (TBPs) that associate with either (or both) telomeric DNA and telomeric proteins.

Defining the chromatin-associated protein landscapes on Trypanosoma brucei repetitive elements using synthetic TALE proteins [PDF]
eLifeKinetoplastids, such as Trypanosoma brucei, are eukaryotes that likely separated from the main lineage at an exceptionally early point in evolution. Consequently, many aspects of kinetoplastid biology differ significantly from other eukaryotic model ...

Molecular cloning of telomere-binding protein gens fromStylonchia mytilis [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 1991 A telomere-binding protein heterodimer of 56 kDa (alpha) and 41 kDa (beta) subunits binds specifically to Oxytricha nova telomeres. Genes encoding both subunits have been cloned previously. Here we report molecular cloning and sequence analysis of the homologous genes in Stylonychia mytilis.

Telomeric repeats facilitate CENP-A(Cnp1) incorporation via telomere binding proteins.
PLoS ONE, 2013 The histone H3 variant, CENP-A, is normally assembled upon canonical centromeric sequences, but there is no apparent obligate coupling of sequence and assembly, suggesting that centromere location can be epigenetically determined.

Plasmodium falciparum GBP2 Is a Telomere-Associated Protein That Binds to G-Quadruplex DNA and RNA
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022 In the early-diverging protozoan parasite Plasmodium, few telomere-binding proteins have been identified and several are unique. Plasmodium telomeres, like those of most eukaryotes, contain guanine-rich repeats that can form G-quadruplex structures.

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae telomerase subunit Est3 binds telomeres in a cell cycle- and Est1-dependent manner and interacts directly with Est1 in vitro. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2011 Telomerase is a telomere dedicated reverse transcriptase that replicates the very ends of eukaryotic chromosomes. Saccharomyces cerevisiae telomerase consists of TLC1 (the RNA template), Est2 (the catalytic subunit), and two accessory proteins, Est1 and ...
