Thesis advisor: Clare O'Connor<br>Telomeres are repeated sequences at the ends of chromosomes, which promote chromosome stability by preventing the loss of necessary nucleotides from the DNA with successive rounds of replication. Telomeres are elongated by the enzyme telomerase, which has both a protein component and an RNA component. In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the TLC1 gene encodes the RNA component of the enzyme.

In the absence of telomerase, Saccharomyces cerevisiae telomeres erode leading to senescence. Rare cells can survive after this stage as they can elongate their telomeres utilizing homologous recombination. Two different types of survivors can be easily distinguished by Southern blot. Type I survivor cells, elongate the telomere by amplifying Y elements and require RAD51, RAD54, RAD55 and RAD57 for establishment. Type II survivors elongate their telomere by amplifying TG1-3 repeats, however, they require the following genes to be established: RAD50, MRE11 and XRS2, RAD59, SGS1 and KU80 in some

Shelterin protects chromosome ends from the DNA damage response (DDR), by facilitating the formation of a telomeric capping structure, called the T-loop. During their elongation in S phase, telomeres become transiently uncapped and can be sensed as DNA damage in G2 phase.

Objetivos. En el presente trabajo se han cumplido dos objetivos concretos: 1. Desarrollo de un nuevo sistema chivato basado en la luciferasa para el estudio de promotores tanto constitutivos como inducibles en el contexto de un organismo completo. 2. Estudio del papel extracurricular del componente de ARN de la telomerasa (TR) en la hematopoyesis usando el pez cebra como modelo. - Metodología. Embriones de pez cebra han sido manipulados genéticamente mediante la microinyección de plásmidos, morfolinos y ARN (solos o en combinación) en el estadío de desarrollo de 1-8 células para recrear las di

Telomeres are essential for maintaining the integrity of the genome. Shortening and dysfunction of telomeres initiates cellular senescence, halting further cell division, and instigating alterations in biological processes which contribute to ageing. Progeroid syndromes are disorders of ageing. Patients exhibit not only an early external appearance of old age, but several age-related diseases including osteoporosis, muscle wasting and cancer. Laminopathies are diseases caused by mutations in LMNA, the gene encoding the key nuclear matrix component lamin A. Some mutations result in progeroid ph

The aim of this study was to screen a list of proteins which were suggested to have roles in telomerase-independent telomere maintenance. Of the proteins screened some had no effect on post-senescent survival (Nup53p and Crp1p). Other proteins are suggested to function in post-senescent survival (M1p1p, M1p2p, Dhh1p, Rrm3p and Stm1p).;The importance of the affect of the chromatin context on post-senescent survival was identified with proteins involved in chromatin remodelling (Chd1p, Isw1p and Isw2p) and modifying (Rdp3p) identified as also affecting survival. Of particular interest was the st

Telomeres are nucleoprotein structures that protect the ends of chromosomes from recombination and fusion. Telomeres are prefentially maintained by the enzyme telomerase. Telomerase is a reverse transcriptase, minimally composed of two core components, a catalytic subunit, TElomerase Reverse Transcriptase (TERT) and an RNA subunit, Telomerase RNA (TR) that carries the template for the replenishment of the telomeres. Telomerase is present throughout evolution, from ciliates and yeasts to vertebrates. Likely because it performs reverse transcription to maintain telomeres in these organisms, telo

Las células malignas deben adquirir un potencial de replicación ilimitado (inmortalidad celular) para la formación de tumores avanzados. La adquisición de inmortalidad celular depende de la reactivación de la telomerasa, una enzima que permite compensar el problema de replicación terminal del ADN asociado a cada división celular. En una serie de estudios presentados en esta tesis, se demuestra:<br/>1. La telomerasa es una enzima regulable en células tumorales humanas.<br/>2.

Une question fondamentale de la biologie évolutive porte sur la compréhension des mécanismes sous-tendant les processus évolutifs et l'évolution des compromis entre les traits d'histoire de vie. Parmi ces mécanismes, les télomères suscitent un intérêt particulier. Les télomères sont localisés à l'extrémité des chromosomes eucaryotes et participent à la sénescence cellulaire et au vieillissement des individus. La longueur des télomères est susceptible de donner des indications sur le mode de vie et l'état physiologique des organismes. Le but de cette thèse a été de comprendre quels sont les fac

Cancer cells elongate their telomeres - G-rich repetitive sequences found at the end of linear chromosomes, allowing limitless replicative potential in these cells. Approximately 85% of cancers use telomerase to extend telomeres, making it an attractive potential anti-cancer target. The G-rich nature of telomeres allows the formation of DNA G-quadruplex secondary structures. Previous data had demonstrated that telomeric G-quadruplex substrates could not be extended by ciliate telomerase (Zahler et al., 1991). However, while the above observation is true for anti-parallel G-quadruplexes, parall

Immortalisation is a hallmark of cancer and requires activation of a telomere lengthening mechanism (TLM) to counteract natural telomere shortening. There are two TLMs: telomerase, reported in 85% of cancers, and Alternative Lengthening of Telomeres (ALT), reported in 13% of cancers. Because most somatic tissues do not have TLM activity, TLMs are widely regarded as targets for the development of anti-cancer therapies. Preliminary data from the Reddel laboratory indicated that in non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC), ALT was more common than previously reported but mostly at very low levels, a
