Acd is a component of the shelterin complex (telosome) that is involved in the regulation of telomere length and protection. Shelterin associates with arrays of double-stranded TTAGGG repeats added by telomerase and protects chromosome ends, without its protective activity, telomeres are no longer hidden from the DNA damage surveillance and chromosome ends are inappropriately processed by DNA repair pathways.Acd promotes binding of POT1 to single-stranded telomeric DNA.Acd modulates the inhibitory effects of POT1 on telomere elongation. The ACD-POT1 heterodimer enhances telomer elongation by increasing telomerase processivity.Acd plays a role in shelterin complex assembly. Acd may play an essential role in organogenesis of the developing embryo.Synonyms: Adrenocortical dysplasia protein homolog, PIP1, PTOP, TINT1, TPP1
