Ustilago maydis Trf2 ensures genome stability by antagonizing Blm-mediated telomere recombination: Fine-tuning DNA repair factor activity at telomeres through opposing regulations.
TRF2 is an essential and conserved double-strand telomere binding protein that stabilizes chromosome ends by suppressing DNA damage response and aberrant DNA repair. Herein we investigated the mechanisms and functions of the Trf2 ortholog in the basidiomycete fungus Ustilago maydis, which manifests...
