Telomerase activity is required to promote telomeric damage in late-generation Pot1b−/− cells. (A) Representative images of γ-H2AX TIFs in the indicated cell lines. Cells were immunostained with γ-H2AX antibody (green), TRF2 antibody (red) and DAPI to stain nuclei (blue). Scale bar: 5μm. (B) Quantification of the indicated cell lines with ≥5 γ-H2AX TIFs in (A). Data show the mean ± standard deviation from two independent experiments in which 150 nuclei were analyzed per cell line. P-values are shown and generated from one-way ANOVA analysis followed by Tukey's multiple comparison. (C) Representative images of γ-H2AX TIFs in the indicated cell lines expressing the indicated constructs. Cells were immunostained with γ-H2AX antibody (green), TRF2 antibody (red) and DAPI to stain nuclei (blue). Scale bar: 5μm. (D) Quantification of the indicated cell lines with ≥ 5 γ-H2AX TIFs in (C). Data show the mean ± standard deviation from three independent experiments in which 150 nuclei were analyzed per cell line. P-values are shown and generated from one-way ANOVA analysis followed by Tukey's multiple comparison. (E) Schematic of mTERT showing the K78 and K560 amino acids.
