Facts about Telomeric repeat-binding factor 2-interacting protein 1.
Instead, it is required to negatively regulate telomere recombination and is essential for repressing homology-directed repair (HDR), which may affect telomere length. Doesn't bind DNA directly: recruited to telomeric double-stranded 5'-TTAGGG-3' repeats through its interaction with TERF2.

Ubiquitous. Highly expressed.
Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Chromosome. Chromosome, telomere. Associates with chromosomes, both at telomeres and in extratelomeric sites. Also exists as a cytoplasmic form, where it associates with the IKK complex.
