Interaction of yeast Rad51 and Rad52 relieves Rad52-mediated inhibition of de novo telomere addition.

DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are toxic forms of DNA damage that must be repaired to maintain genome integrity. Telomerase can act upon a DSB to create a de novo telomere, a process that interferes with normal repair and creates terminal deletions. We previously identified sequences in Saccharomyc...
