The double-stranded DNA-binding proteins TEBP-1 and TEBP-2 form a telomeric complex with POT-1

S. Dietz, M. V. Almeida, E. Nischwitz, J. Schreier, N. Viceconte, A. Fradera Sola, C. Renz, A. Ceron-Noriega, H. D. Ulrich, D. Kappei, R. F. Ketting, F. Butter

This study identifies TEBP-1 and TEBP-2 as double-stranded telomere-binding proteins in C. elegans that form a complex with POT-1, and shows their distinct roles in telomere length regulation and fertility.
