Figure 1. Protelomerase Resolves Replicated Hairpin Telomeres
(A) Replication of a linear chromosome with hairpin
telomeres produces a dimeric circular intermediate that is
resolved into unit-length chromosomes by the activity of
protelomerase. (B) A model for the hairpin formation
reaction by the protelomerase TelK, proposed based on the
crystal structure presented in this study.
