Depleting components of the THO complex causes increased telomere length by reducing the expression of the telomere-associated protein Rif1p.
Telomere length is regulated mostly by proteins directly associated with telomeres. However, genome-wide analysis of Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutants has revealed that deletion of Hpr1p, a component of the THO complex, also affects telomere length. The THO complex comprises four protein subunits, na...
