Whereas Rap1 hyper-phosphorylation observed in meiotic prophase does not have an apparent role in bouquet formation, the intrinsic negative charge of Rap1 is important for forming interactions with its binding partners.
Title: Telomere protein Rap1 is a charge resistant scaffolding protein in chromosomal bouquet formation.

fission yeast shelterin (shelterin subunits Poz1, Rap1 and Taz1 )maintains telomere length homeostasis by coordinating the differential arrival of leading (Polepsilon) and lagging (Polalpha) strand DNA polymerases at telomeres to modulate Rad3(ATR) association
Title: Fission yeast shelterin regulates DNA polymerases and Rad3(ATR) kinase to limit telomere extension.

it is proposed that the telomere dissociation from the nuclear envelope promoted by Rap1 phosphorylation is critical for the fidelity of chromosome segregation in closed mitosis
Title: Telomere-nuclear envelope dissociation promoted by Rap1 phosphorylation ensures faithful chromosome segregation.

Recombination-based telomere maintenance is dependent on Tel1-MRN and Rap1 and inhibited by telomerase, Taz1, and Ku.
