Novel functions of Rif1 at telomeres and double strand breaks in S. cerevisiae

Telomeres cap the end of linear chromosomes and are vital for the genomic stability of eukaryotic cells. The function of telomeres depends on the interaction between the telomeric DNA and specialised telomere-bound proteins. In this study, I show that the budding yeast Rif1 (Rap1-interacting factor)...
