Telomere-binding proteins of Arabidopsis thaliana

Plant Molecular Biology, 1995
The nucleoprotein structure of Arabidopsis thaliana telomeres was investigated. A protein specifically binding to telomeric sequences was characterized by gel mobility shift assays with synthetic oligonucleotides consisting of four 7 bp telomeric repeats of Arabidopsis (TTTAGGG) and crude nuclear protein extracts of Arabidopsis leaves.

Telomere-Binding Proteins in Humans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Shelterin, the telomere-secific protein complex, is essential for genome stability and cell viability. Shelterin accumulates at telomeres and transforms chromosome ends into specialized structures that evade recognition by the DNA damage signaling and repair machineries and are maintained through consecutive cell divisions. Shelterin accomplishes these

Telomere biology in neuroblastoma: telomere binding proteins and alternative strengthening of telomeres

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2009
Neuroblastoma (NBL) shows remarkable biologic heterogeneity, resulting in favorable or unfavorable prognoses. Previously, we reported that most unfavorable NBLs express high telomerase activity to maintain telomere length. Recently, telomere binding proteins (TBPs) and alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALTs) have been identified as key factors of ...

Using the Telobox to Search for Plant Telomere Binding Proteins [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Protein & Peptide Science, 2011
Telobox is a Myb-related DNA-binding domain which is present in a number of yeast, plant and animal proteins. Its capacity to bind preferentially double-stranded telomeric DNA has been used in numerous studies to search for candidate telomeric proteins in various organisms, including plants.

Telomere-Binding Proteins of Ciliated Protozoa [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
A great deal of our current knowledge about telomere structure and function has come from studies performed with ciliated protozoa. The reason that studies of ciliate telomeres have been so productive stems from the unusual genomic organization of these organisms.

Telomere-binding Proteins in Fission Yeast [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The telomere is a specialized heterochromatin localized at the end of the linear chromosome, and is essential for the multiple aspects of genome integrity. Telomere functions are performed mostly by telomere-binding proteins. Although many of the telomere-binding proteins are conserved among species, some variations exist. Recent studies of the fission

Telomeric and extra-telomeric roles for telomerase and the telomere-binding proteins

Nature Reviews Cancer, 2011
Mammalian telomeres are formed by tandem repeats of the TTAGGG sequence, which are progressively lost with each round of cell division. Telomere protection requires a minimal length of TTAGGG repeats to allow the binding of shelterin, which prevents the activation of a DNA damage response (DDR) at chromosome ends.
