Abstract excerpt
The chromosome end-replicating enzyme telomerase is composed of a template-containing RNA subunit, a reverse transcriptase (TERT), and additional proteins. The importance of conserved amino acid residues in Trt1p, the TERT of Schizosaccharomyces pombe, was tested. Mutation to alanine of the proposed catalytic aspartates in reverse transcriptase motifs A and C and of conserved amino acids in motifs 1 and B'...
