'''Crystal structure of human TPP1'''<br />


==Overview==
==Crystal structure of human TPP1==
Telomeres were originally defined as chromosome caps that prevent the, natural ends of linear chromosomes from undergoing deleterious degradation, and fusion events. POT1 (protection of telomeres) protein binds the, single-stranded G-rich DNA overhangs at human chromosome ends and, suppresses unwanted DNA repair activities. TPP1 is a previously identified, binding partner of POT1 that has been proposed to form part of a, six-protein shelterin complex at telomeres. Here, the crystal structure of, a domain of human TPP1 reveals an oligonucleotide/oligosaccharide-binding, fold that is structurally similar to the beta-subunit of the telomere, end-binding protein of a ciliated protozoan, suggesting that TPP1 is the, missing beta-subunit of human POT1 protein. Telomeric DNA end-binding, proteins have generally been found to inhibit rather than stimulate the, action of the chromosome end-replicating enzyme, telomerase. In contrast, we find that TPP1 and POT1 form a complex with telomeric DNA that, increases the activity and processivity of the human telomerase core, enzyme. We propose that POT1-TPP1 switches from inhibiting telomerase, access to the telomere, as a component of shelterin, to serving as a, processivity factor for telomerase during telomere extension.

The POT1-TPP1 telomere complex is a telomerase processivity factor., Wang F, Podell ER, Zaug AJ, Yang Y, Baciu P, Cech TR, Lei M, Nature. 2007 Feb 1;445(7127):506-10. Epub 2007 Jan 21. PMID:[http://ispc.weizmann.ac.il//pmbin/getpm?pmid=17237768 17237768]
== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/ACD_HUMAN ACD_HUMAN] Component of the shelterin complex (telosome) that is involved in the regulation of telomere length and protection. Shelterin associates with arrays of double-stranded TTAGGG repeats added by telomerase and protects chromosome ends; without its protective activity, telomeres are no longer hidden from the DNA damage surveillance and chromosome ends are inappropriately processed by DNA repair pathways. Promotes binding of POT1 to single-stranded telomeric DNA. Modulates the inhibitory effects of POT1 on telomere elongation. The ACD-POT1 heterodimer enhances telomere elongation by increasing telomerase processivity. Plays a role in shelterin complex assembly. May play a role in organogenesis.<ref>PMID:15181449</ref> <ref>PMID:16166375</ref> <ref>PMID:16880378</ref> <ref>PMID:20231318</ref> <ref>PMID:17237768</ref>
