Function

[TERF2_HUMAN] Binds the telomeric double-stranded 5'-TTAGGG-3' repeat and plays a central role in telomere maintenance and protection against end-to-end fusion of chromosomes. In addition to its telomeric DNA-binding role, required to recruit a number of factors and enzymes required for telomere protection, including the shelterin complex, TERF2IP/RAP1 and DCLRE1B/Apollo. Component of the shelterin complex (telosome) that is involved in the regulation of telomere length and protection. Shelterin associates with arrays of double-stranded 5'-TTAGGG-3' repeats added by telomerase and protects chromosome ends; without its protective activity, telomeres are no longer hidden from the DNA damage surveillance and chromosome ends are inappropriately processed by DNA repair pathways. Together with DCLRE1B/Apollo, plays a key role in telomeric loop (T loop) formation by generating 3' single-stranded overhang at the leading end telomeres: T loops have been proposed to protect chromosome ends from degradation and repair. Required both to recruit DCLRE1B/Apollo to telomeres and activate the exonuclease activity of DCLRE1B/Apollo. Preferentially binds to positive supercoiled DNA. Together with DCLRE1B/Apollo, required to control the amount of DNA topoisomerase (TOP1, TOP2A and TOP2B) needed for telomere replication during fork passage and prevent aberrant telomere topology. Recruits TERF2IP/RAP1 to telomeres, thereby participating in to repressing homology-directed repair (HDR), which can affect telomere length.^[1] ^[2] ^[3]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

TRF1 and TRF2 are key components of vertebrate telomeres. They bind to double-stranded telomeric DNA as homodimers. Dimerization involves the TRF homology (TRFH) domain, which also mediates interactions with other telomeric proteins. The crystal structures of the dimerization domains from human TRF1 and TRF2 were determined at 2.9 and 2.2 A resolution, respectively. Despite a modest sequence identity, the two TRFH domains have the same entirely alpha-helical architecture, resembling a twisted horseshoe. The dimerization interfaces feature unique interactions that prevent heterodimerization. Mutational analysis of TRF1 corroborates the structural data and underscores the importance of the TRFH domain in dimerization, DNA binding, and telomere localization. A possible structural homology between the TRFH domain of fission yeast telomeric protein Taz1 with those of the vertebrate TRFs is suggested.
