POT1 recruits and regulates CST-Polalpha/primase at human telomeres.
Cai SW, Takai H, Zaug AJ, Dilgen TC, Cech TR, Walz T, de Lange T. Cai SW, et al. Cell. 2024 Jul 11;187(14):3638-3651.e18. doi: 10.1016/j.cell.2024.05.002. Epub 2024 Jun 4. Cell. 2024. PMID: 38838667 Free PMC article.
At telomeres, Polalpha/primase is bound to Ctc1/Stn1/Ten1 (CST), a single-stranded DNA-binding complex. Like mutations in telomerase, mutations affecting CST-Polalpha/primase result in pathological telomere shortening and cause a telomere biology disor …

CST-Polalpha/Primase: the second telomere maintenance machine.
Cai SW, de Lange T. Cai SW, et al. Genes Dev. 2023 Jul 1;37(13-14):555-569. doi: 10.1101/gad.350479.123. Epub 2023 Jul 26. Genes Dev. 2023. PMID: 37495394 Free PMC article. Review.
Therefore, a second enzyme is needed to keep telomeres intact: DNA polymerase alpha/Primase bound to Ctc1-Stn1-Ten1 (CST). CST-Polalpha/Primase maintains telomeres through a fill-in reaction that replenishes the lost sequences at the 5' ends. CST not only ser …
