On-chip microfluidic biocommunication assay for studying male-induced demise in C. elegans hermaphrodites

Martinus Adela Maria Gijs, Thomas Lehnert, Matteo Cornaglia, Li Dong

Like other animals, C. elegans nematodes have the ability to socially interact and to communicate through exchange and sensing of small soluble signaling compounds that help them cope with complex environmental conditions. For the time being, worm biocommu ...

A three-state model for the regulation of telomerase by TERRA and hnRNPA1

Joachim Lingner, Sophie Redon, Ivo Zemp

Telomeres, the physical ends of eukaryotic chromosomes, are transcribed into telomeric repeat-containing RNA (TERRA), a large non-coding RNA, which forms an integral part of telomeric heterochromatin. In vitro, naked TERRA molecules are efficient inhibitor ...

The human CST complex is a terminator of telomerase activity

Joachim Lingner, Liuh-Yow Chen, Sophie Redon

The lengths of human telomeres, which protect chromosome ends from degradation and end fusions(1,2), are crucial determinants of cell lifespan(3). During embryogenesis and in cancer, the telomerase enzyme counteracts telomeric DNA shortening. As shown in c ...

Telomerase is essential to alleviate pif1-induced replication stress at telomeres

Joachim Lingner

Pif1, an evolutionarily conserved helicase, negatively regulates telomere length by removing telomerase from chromosome ends. Pif1 has also been implicated in DNA replication processes Such as Okazaki fragment maturation and replication fork pausing. We fi ...

Human telomerase RNA accumulation in cajal bodies facilitates telomerase recruitment to telomeres and telomere elongation

Joachim Lingner, Katarzyna Sikora

Telomerase is required for telomere maintenance and is responsible for the immortal phenotype of cancer cells. How telomerase is assembled and reaches telomeres in the context of nuclear architecture is not understood. Recently, the telomerase RNA subunit ...

Tel1 kinase and subtelomere-bound Tbf1 mediate preferential elongation of short telomeres by telomerase in yeast

Joachim Lingner

Telomerase enables telomere length homeostasis, exhibiting increasing preference for telomeres as their lengths decline. This regulation involves telomere repeat-bound Rap1, which provides a length-dependent negative feedback mechanism, and the Tel1 and Me ...

Telomerase repeat addition processivity is increased at critically short telomeres in a Tel1-dependent manner in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Joachim Lingner

Telomerase is the ribonucleoprotein enzyme that elongates telomeres to counteract telomere shortening. The core enzyme consists of a reverse transcriptase protein subunit and an RNA subunit. The RNA subunit contains a short region that is used as a templat ...
