Structure of the C-terminal domain of human telomeric Stn1

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23826127

Function

[STN1_HUMAN] Component of the CST complex, a complex that binds to single-stranded DNA and is required to protect telomeres from DNA degradation. The CST complex binds single-stranded DNA with high affinity in a sequence-independent manner, while isolated subunits bind DNA with low affinity by themselves. In addition to telomere protection, the CST complex has probably a more general role in DNA metabolism at non-telomeric sites.[1] [2]
