Function

CDC13_YEAST Single-stranded telomeric DNA-binding protein that regulates telomere replication. Has a role in both positive and negative regulation. Promotes [TG(1-3)] strand lengthening via interaction with EST1. Promotes [C(1-3)A] strand re-synthesis by DNA polymerase alpha via interaction with POL1. Negatively regulates telomere elongation of the G strand via binding with STN1 thereby inhibiting telomerase activity.^{[1] [2] [3]}
