Telomeric repeats facilitate CENP-A(Cnp1) incorporation via telomere binding proteins. by Araceli G Castillo, Alison L Pidoux, Sandra Catania, Mickaël Durand-Dubief, Eun Shik Choi, Georgina Hamilton, Karl Ekwall, Robin C Allshire

“…The Ccq1 protein, which is known to bind telomere repeats and recruit telomerase, was found to be required to induce H3K9 methylation and thus promote the incorporation of CENP-A(Cnp1) near telomere repeats. …”

An H2A Histone Isotype, H2ac, Associates with Telomere and Maintains Telomere Integrity. by Chia-Hsin Su, Ching Cheng, Tsai-Yu Tzeng, I-Hsuan Lin, Ming-Ta Hsu

“…Here we report that a replication-dependent histone H2A isotype, H2ac, was associated with telomeres in human cells and co-immunoprecipitates with telomere repeat factor 2 (TRF2) and protection of telomeres protein 1 (POT1), whereas other histone H2A isotypes and mutations of H2ac did not bind to telomeres or these two proteins. …”

Gametes deficient for Pot1 telomere binding proteins alter levels of telomeric foci for multiple generations by Evan H. Lister-Shimauchi, Michael Dinh, Paul Maddox, Shawn Ahmed

“…Lister-Shimauchi et al. find that gametes from mutants that lack the genes encoding telomere binding proteins POT-1 or POT-2 affect the levels of POT1 telomere foci in progeny, in opposite ways, for multiple generations and that gametes deficient in heterochromatin formation reduce POT1 foci. …”
