The <scene name='56/567269/Ku_heterodimer/3'>Ku heterodimer</scene> serves to assist in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-homologous_end_joining 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 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rif_(GTPase) Rif proteins] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sir2 Sir proteins]. <ref name="source3"/><ref name="source4"/> | The <scene name='56/567269/Ku_heterodimer/3'>Ku heterodimer</scene> serves to assist in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-homologous_end_joining non-homologous end joining (NHEJ)], and also in telomere synthesis and protection.
