Telomere maintenance and gene repression: a common end?

Curr Opin Cell Biol. 1994 Jun;6(3):373-9. doi: 10.1016/0955-0674(94)90029-9.

Abstract

In yeast, the study of the teleomere has recently provided new information on the requirements for chromosome stability, on elements influencing nuclear architecture and on position-effect variegation.
