Single-strand selective uracil DNA-glycosylase (SMUG1) associates with the DKC1-H/ACA ribonucleoprotein complex, which is essential for telomerase biogenesis. We show herein, that SMUG1 interacts with the telomerase RNA component, hTERC, and is required for co-transcriptional processing of the nasce...
