Truncation of Tel6R impairs Tel6R–Tel6L interaction. Distance distribution box plots were performed and are represented as in Fig. 3 for the indicated pairs of telomeres. The relevant strains and numbers of cells analyzed are as follows: (panel 1) GA-958, n = 231, pair: 6L–6R; (panel 2) GA-3742, n = 368, pair: 6L–6RΔ10kb; (panel 3) GA-3708, n = 202, pair: 5L–5R natural; (panel 4) GA-957, n = 180, pair: 6L–5R. The indicated P-values compare the likelihood that the two indicated patterns are different, and was calculated in R using the two-sample Kolmogorov–Smirnov test.
