Target
FUNCTION: Telomerase is a ribonucleoprotein enzyme essential for the replication of chromosome termini in most eukaryotes. It elongates telomeres. It is a reverse transcriptase that adds simple sequence repeats to chromosome ends by copying a template sequence within the RNA component of the enzyme.
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Deoxynucleoside triphosphate + DNA(n) = diphosphate + DNA(n+1).
SUBUNIT: Component of the telomerase ribonucleoprotein complex at least composed of TEP1, EST1A, POT1 and a telomerase RNA template component (TER). Interacts with PINX1 and MCRS1.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus. Telomere.
DISEASE: Activation of telomerase has been implicated in cell immortalization and cancer cell pathogenesis.
Storage
