AbstractIn 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, cdc13F684S, 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.
