Description
Product Characteristics: STN1 (Protein STN1) has a role in telomere length regulation and telomere end protection. Acts as an inhibitor of telomerase loading through its interaction with CDC13. STN1 (Protein STN1)interacts with CDC13 and TEN1. STN1 may localize in Telomere and it is similar to YDR082W STN1 Telomere end-binding and capping protein, plays a key role with Pol12p in linking telomerase action with completion of lagging strand synthesis, and in a regulatory step required for telomere capping.
Synonyms: D4456, YD8554.15
Target Information: OBFC1 and C17ORF68 (MIM 613129) are subunits of an alpha accessory factor (AAF) that stimulates the activity of DNA polymerase-alpha-primase (see MIM 176636), the enzyme that initiates DNA replication (Casteel et al., 2009 [PubMed 19119139]). OBFC1 also appears to function in a telomere-associated complex with C17ORF68 and TEN1 (C17ORF106\, MIM 613130) (Miyake et al., 2009 [PubMed 19854130]).[supplied by OMIM, Nov 2009]
