Mammalian telomerase: catalytic subunit and knockout mice.
For the second time this year random cDNA sequencing, in combination with data from unicellular eukaryotes, has made a significant contribution to the analysis of human telomerase. Two groups have reported mammalian homologues of the Tetrahymena p80 telomerase-associated protein, in both cases the key breakthrough being mammalian cDNA clones with database matches to Tetrahymena p80. This has no...
متن کاملThe catalytic subunit of yeast telomerase.
Telomerase is an RNA-directed DNA polymerase, composed of RNA and protein subunits, that replicates the telomere ends of linear eukaryotic chromosomes. Using a genetic strategy described here, we identify the product of the EST2 gene, Est2p, as a subunit of telomerase in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Est2p is required for enzyme catalysis, as mutations in EST2 were found to result in the ...
متن کاملtrt-1 Is the Caenorhabditis elegans Catalytic Subunit of Telomerase
Mutants of trt-1, the Caenorhabditis elegans telomerase reverse transcriptase, reproduce normally for several generations but eventually become sterile as a consequence of telomere erosion and end-to-end chromosome fusions. Telomere erosion and uncapping do not cause an increase in apoptosis in the germlines of trt-1 mutants. Instead, late-generation trt-1 mutants display chromosome segregation...
متن کاملExpression profile of the putative catalytic subunit of the telomerase gene.
Telomerase, a ribonucleoprotein complex, adds hexameric repeats called telomeres to the growing ends of chromosomal DNA. The enzyme telomerase activity is present in a vast majority of tumors but is repressed in most normal tissues. Recently, two groups have reported the molecular cloning of the putative catalytic subunit (hEST2/hTRT) of the telomerase gene. We investigated the expression of th...
متن کاملphylogeography and genetic diversity of the lesser mouse- eared bat (myotis blythii) in iran
in current study, 63 samples of bat populations collected from differ regions were used for evaluating the geographic variations. twenty cranial and dental characters for traditional morphometric and landmarks method on the ventral, dorsal skull and mandible for geometry morphometric studies were used. statistical analyses of traditional morphometric and geometry morphometric data indicated low...
