@article{90906, keywords = {Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Telomere}, author = {Raymund Wellinger and Virginia Zakian}, title = {Everything you ever wanted to know about Saccharomyces cerevisiae telomeres: beginning to end.}, abstract = { The mechanisms that maintain the stability of chromosome ends have broad impact on genome integrity in all eukaryotes. Budding yeast is a premier organism for telomere studies. Many fundamental concepts of telomere and telomerase function were first established in yeast and then extended to other organisms. We present a comprehensive review of yeast telomere biology that covers capping, replication, recombination, and transcription. We think of it as yeast telomeres--soup to nuts. }, year = {2012}, journal = {Genetics}, volume = {191}, pages = {1073-105}, month = {08/2012}, issn = {1943-2631}, doi = {10.1534/genetics.111.137851}, language = {eng}, }
