The Pif1 Helicase, a Negative Regulator of Telomerase, Acts Preferentially at Long Telomeres

Telomerase, the enzyme that maintains telomeres, preferentially lengthens short telomeres. The S. cerevisiae Pif1 DNA helicase inhibits both telomerase-mediated telomere lengthening and de novo telomere addition at double strand breaks (DSB). Here, we report that the association of the telomerase su...
