Characterization of Physical and Functional Anchor Site Interactions in Human Telomerase
13 Feb 2007
Abstract excerpt
Telomerase is a ribonucleoprotein reverse transcriptase (RT) that processively synthesizes telomeric repeats onto the ends of linear chromosomes to maintain genomic stability. It has been proposed that the N terminus of the telomerase protein subunit, telomerase RT (TERT), contains an anchor site that forms stable interactions with DNA to prevent enzyme-DNA dissociation during translocation and to promote...
