A conserved ncRNA-binding protein recruits silencing factors to heterochromatin through an RNAi-independent mechanism.

abstract：:The fission yeast telomerase RNA (TER1) precursor harbors an intron immediately downstream from its mature 3' end. Unlike most introns, which are removed from precursor RNAs by the spliceosome in two sequential but tightly coupled transesterification reactions, TER1 only undergoes the first cleavage reaction during te...

These elements are encoded within the transcript they regulate, and act in cis to control expression of the coding sequence(s) within that transcript; their function is therefore distinct from that of small...
