Telomerase activity in human germline and embryonic tissues and cells
1996-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Telomerase is a ribonucleoprotein that synthesizes telomere repeats onto chromosome ends and is involved in maintaining telomere length in germline tissues and in immortal and cancer cells. In the present study, the temporal regulation of expression of telomerase activity was examined in human germline and somatic tissues and cells during development. Telomerase activity was detected in fetal, newborn, and adult t...
