The heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A1
protein and a shortened derivative (UP1) promote telomere elongation in
mammalian cells. To gain insights into the function of A1/UP1 in
telomere biogenesis, we have investigated the binding properties of
recombinant A1/UP1 and derivatives to single-stranded DNA
oligonucleotides. Our results indicate that UP1 prefers to bind to DNA
carrying single-stranded telomeric extensions at the 3' terminus. The
RNA recognition motif 1 is sufficient for strong and specific binding to oligomers carrying vertebrate telomeric repeats. We find that the
binding of A1/UP1 protects telomeric sequences against degradation by
endo- and exonucleases. Moreover, A1/UP1 binding prevents extension by
telomerase and terminal deoxynucleotidyltransferase and inhibits rNTP-dependent DNA synthesis in vitro. These
observations are consistent with the hypothesis that A1/UP1 is a
telomere end-binding protein that plays a role in the maintenance of
long 3' overhangs.
