The 3'ends of chromosomes are capped with telomere sequences (TTAGGG; 6-26 nucleotides in length) by ribonucleoprotein telomerase during DNA replication.
Telomerase is an unusual RNA-dependent DNA polymerase that uses and RNA component to specify the addition of telomere.
The telomeric RNA contains a sequence complementary to TTAGGG.
Introduction of telomerase into normal human cells has been shown to extend normal cell life by ~ 20 doubling.
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARPs) catalyze formation of long, branched chain of poly(ADP-ribose) onto protein acceptors using NAD+ as a substrate.
Poly(ADP)ribosylation is a transient posttranslational modification that can either enhance or reduce protein activity.
Tankyrase (TRF1 interacting ankyrin-related ADP-ribose polymerase; human 1327 aa, renamed as TNKS-1/TANK1, chromosome 8), a modular protein with homology to ankyrin and poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase (PARP) has been cloned and localized to telomere.
The N-terminal HPS domain contains multiple run of histidine, proline, and serine residue homopolymers.
