MTV, an ssDNA Protecting Complex Essential for Transposon-Based Telomere Maintenance in Drosophila.

Multiple complexes protect telomeres. In telomerase-maintained organisms, Shelterin related complexes occupy the duplex region while the CST and Tpp1-Pot1 complexes bind the single stranded overhang of telomeres. Drosophila uses a transposon-based mechanism for end protection. We showed that the HOA...
