Loss of Cdc13 causes genome instability by a deficiency in replication-dependent telomere capping
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract In budding yeast, Cdc13, Stn1, and Ten1 form a telomere binding heterotrimer dubbed CST. Here we investigate the role of Cdc13/CST in maintaining genome stability, using a Chr VII disome system that can generate recombinants, loss, and enigmatic unstable chromosomes. In cells expressing a temperature sensitive CDC13 allele, cdc13 F684S , unstable chromosomes frequently arise due to problems in or near a telomere. Hence, when Cdc13 is defective, passage through S phase causes Exo1-dependent ssDNA and unstable chromosomes, which then are the source for whole chromosome instability events (e.g. recombinants, chromosome truncations, dicentrics, and/or loss). Specifically, genome instability arises from a defect in Cdc13’s replication-dependent telomere capping function, not Cdc13s putative post-replication telomere capping function. Furthermore, the unstable chromosomes form without involvement of homologous recombination nor non-homologous end joining. Our data suggest that a Cdc13/CST defect in semi-conservative replication near the telomere leads to ssDNA and unstable chromosomes, which then are lost or subject to complex rearrangements. This system defines a links between replication-dependent chromosome capping and genome stability in the form of unstable chromosomes.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
