Supplementary information

This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.

Telomerase reverse transcriptase also known as TERT is a catalytic subunit of the enzyme telomerase responsible for regenerating telomeres at the ends of chromosomes during DNA replication. TERT is critical in maintaining chromosomal stability and is highly expressed in germ cells stem cells and certain proliferative somatic tissues. It has a mass of approximately 127 kDa and often works by protecting the telomeres from shortening which is important for the maintenance of genome integrity in rapidly dividing cells.
Biological function summary

The mechanism of TERT involves its integration into the larger holoenzyme complex where it pairs with the telomerase RNA component (TERC). TERT's primary function is to add TTAGGG nucleotide repeats to the 3' ends of chromosomes countering the loss of DNA that occurs during cell division. This activity is important in cellular immortality and is highly active in conditions requiring rapid cell proliferation.

Pathways

TERT is centrally involved in the maintenance of telomere length which affects the cell cycle and aging pathways. It interacts closely with proteins such as p53 and the Rb pathway where it influences cellular aging and apoptosis. The interactions between TERT and these pathways reflect its role in modulating the balance between cellular proliferation and senescence linking it to cellular aging and cancer development.

TERT is associated with cancer and age-related disorders. Its prolific expression in cancer cells leads to immortalization which contributes to tumor progression. Furthermore the mutation or dysregulation in TERT expression can result in telomere shortening disorders like dyskeratosis congenita. Proteins such as p53 are involved in these conditions as p53 regulates cell cycle control and apoptosis pathways where TERT plays a critical role.
