Telomerase flies the coop: the telomerase RNA component as a viral-encoded oncogene.

The Journal of experimental medicine - 15 May 2006

Artandi Steven E

Abstract excerpt

Telomerase, the enzyme that elongates our telomeres, is crucial for cancer development based on extensive analyses of human cells, human cancers, and mouse models. New data now suggest that a viral telomerase RNA gene encoded by Marek's disease virus (MDV), an oncogenic herpesvirus of chickens, promotes tumor formation. These findings highlight the importance of telomerase in cancer and raise new questions...
