Modular ssDNA binding and inhibition of telomerase activity by designer PPR proteins

Pentatricopeptide repeat proteins bind single-stranded RNA and have been used to study ssRNA biology. Here the authors co-opt these proteins to target ssDNA and demonstrate specific binding of telomere sequences, the structural basis for ssDNA wrapping, and use them as potent telomerase inhibitors.
