Identification of telomerase RNAs from filamentous fungi reveals conservation with vertebrates and yeasts.

Identification of telomerase RNAs from filamentous fungi reveals conservation with vertebrates and yeasts.

Telomeres are the nucleoprotein complexes at eukaryotic chromosomal ends. Telomeric DNA is synthesized by the ribonucleoprotein telomerase, which comprises a telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) and a telomerase RNA (TER). TER contains a template for telomeric DNA synthesis. Filamentous fungi pos...
