TABLE 6.

Telomere shortening rates of K. lactis strainsa

Strain Shortening rate (bp/division)
RAP1 TER1 5.65 ± 0.94
rap1-ΔC TER1 8.83 ± 1.67
RAP1 ter1-Acc 8.92 ± 3.93

Four clones were taken for each experiment. Telomere shortening was calculated (from 4 to 8 measurements for each point) as the difference in telomere length between the first and fifth dilutions. TER1 and ter1-Acc were high-copy-number plasmids. Data are means ± standard deviations.
