Zbtb34 promotes embryonic stem cell proliferation by elongating telomere length

class="figure-viewer-img"

Figure 5. Zbtb34 competes for the binding sites on telomeres with Pot1b. (A) Schemata represents the Myc-Pot1a and Flag-Pot1b constructs. (B) Telomere co-immunoprecipitation shows the association of Zbtb34 and Pot1a or Pot1b with telomere DNA in mESCs. The random sequence (TGTGAG) is the control. Abbreviations: ZnF: zinc finger; OB: oligonucleotide binding; HJR: holiday junction resolvase; mESCs: mouse embryonic stem cells.
