Incorporation of Y′-Ty1 cDNA Destabilizes Telomeres in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Telomerase-Negative Mutants

Ty1 retrotransposons in Saccharomyces cerevisiae are activated by telomere erosion. Ty1-dependent reverse transcription of mRNA from subtelomeric Y′ repeats generates chimeric Y′-Ty1 cDNA. Here, we show that Y′-Ty1 cDNA is incorporated at eroding telomeres in the absence of telomerase. Telomeric inc...
