TRF1 promotes parallel pairing of telomeric tracts in vitro
Abstract
Human telomeres consist of long arrays of TTAGGG repeats bound to the telomere-specific proteins, TRF1 and TRF2. Here we describe the structure of in vitro complexes formed between telomeric DNA and TRF1 as deduced by electron microscopy. Visualization of TRF1 bound to DNA containing six or 12 tandem TTAGGG repeats revealed a population of DNAs containing a spherical protein complex localized just to the repeats. Mass analysis of the protein complexes suggested binding of TRF1 dimers and tetramers to the TTAGGG repeats. The DNA was not significantly compacted or extended by protein binding. TRF1 formed filamentous structures on longer telomeric repeat arrays (>/=27 repeats) consistent with the presence of an array of bound TRF1 dimers. Unexpectedly, there was a strong propensity for two telomeric tracts to form paired synapses over the TRF1 covered segment. Up to 30% of the TRF1-bound DNAs could be found in a paired configuration with a strong bias for a parallel as contrasted to an antiparallel arrangement. TRF1-induced pairing was confirmed using a ligation assay which detected the formation of DNA multimers dependent on the presence of TRF1 and a 27mer repeat array in the DNA. These findings suggests that this protein may have an architectural role at telomeres. We discuss the possibility that TRF1-dependent changes in the conformation of telomeres are involved in the regulation of telomere length.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
