    Condensin positioning at telomeres by shelterin proteins drives sister-telomere disjunction in anaphase

    Léonard Colin, Celine Reyes ... Sylvie Tournier
    Telomeric proteins Taz1 or Mit1 specifically regulate telomere association of condensin which is essential for sister-telomere disjunction in mitosis by restraining telomere association of cohesin.

    PI(3,4,5)P3 allosteric regulation of repressor activator protein 1 controls antigenic variation in trypanosomes

    Abdoulie O Touray, Rishi Rajesh ... Igor Cestari
    Nuclear phosphoinositide signaling controls telomeric gene repression and activation essential for switching expression of surface antigen genes and thus antigenic variation.

    Minimized human telomerase maintains telomeres and resolves endogenous roles of H/ACA proteins, TCAB1, and Cajal bodies

    Jacob M Vogan, Xiaozhu Zhang ... Kathleen Collins
    The Cajal body chaperone TCAB1 and scaffold protein Coilin are not required for telomerase activity in human cells.

    Elimination of subtelomeric repeat sequences exerts little effect on telomere essential functions in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

    Can Hu, Xue-Ting Zhu ... Jin-Qiu Zhou
    Subtelomeric sequences in the yeast S. cerevisiae are dispensable for either cell proliferation or homologous recombination-mediated telomere maintenance in telomerase-null cells, suggesting that these sequences represent remnants of genome evolution.

    The role of Rif1 in telomere length regulation is separable from its role in origin firing

    Calla B Shubin, Carol W Greider
    Telomere length is linked to DNA replication, and we found excessive telomeric origin firing caused by several distinct mutants did not lengthen telomeres, narrowing possible mechanisms.

    Control of telomere length in yeast by SUMOylated PCNA and the Elg1 PCNA unloader

    Pragyan Singh, Inbal Gazy, Martin Kupiec
    SUMOylated PCNA and the Elg1 PCNA unloader interact with the CST complex to coordinate DNA replication and telomere length maintenance.

    The Ku subunit of telomerase binds Sir4 to recruit telomerase to lengthen telomeres in S. cerevisiae

    Evan P Hass, David C Zappulla
    In yeast, the secondary pathway for recruiting telomerase to chromosome ends requires a component of telomeric transcriptionally silent chromatin.

    Genome plasticity in Candida albicans is driven by long repeat sequences

    Robert T Todd, Tyler D Wikoff ... Anna Selmecki
    Previously uncharacterized long repeat sequences are associated with significant genome variation that can increase fitness and promote antifungal drug resistance in diverse isolates of Candida albicans.

    Major satellite repeat RNA stabilize heterochromatin retention of Suv39h enzymes by RNA-nucleosome association and RNA:DNA hybrid formation

    Oscar Velazquez Camacho, Carmen Galan ... Thomas Jenuwein
    An RNA-mediated mechanism that stabilizes association of the Suv39h enzymes at mouse heterochromatin is defined.
