Telomeres located at the ends of linear chromosomes play important roles in the maintenance of life. Rap1, a component of the shelterin telomere protein complex, interacts with multiple proteins to perform various functions; further, formation of shelterin requires Rap1 binding to other components such as Taz1 and Poz1, and telomere tethering to the nuclear envelope (NE) involves interactions between Rap1 and Bqt4, a nuclear membrane protein. Although Rap1 is a hub for telomere protein complexes, the regulatory mechanisms of its interactions with partner proteins are not fully understood. Here, we show that Rap1 is phosphorylated by casein kinase 2 (CK2) at multiple sites, which promotes interactions with Bqt4 and Poz1. Among the multiple CK2-mediated phosphorylation sites of Rap1, phosphorylation at Ser496 was found to be crucial for both Rap1–Bqt4 and Rap1–Poz1 interactions. These mechanisms mediate proper telomere tethering to the NE and the formation of the silenced chromatin structure at chromosome ends.
