	The <scene name='56/567269/Ku_heterodimer/3'>Ku heterodimer</scene> serves to assist in [[non-homologous end joining (NHEJ)]], and also in telomere synthesis and protection. These functions are separate interactions based on key residues that are being identified through current research. Recent research also links the Ku protein with heterochromatin formation through interaction with [[Rif]] and [[Sir proteins]]. <ref name="source3"/><ref name="source4"/>		The <scene name='56/567269/Ku_heterodimer/3'>Ku heterodimer</scene> serves to assist in [[non-homologous end joining (NHEJ)]], and also in telomere synthesis and protection.
