==The high resolution structure of the RNA-binding domain of telomerase==
-
Telomerase, a ribonucleoprotein complex, replicates the linear ends of, eukaryotic chromosomes, thus taking care of the "end of replication, problem." TERT contains an essential and universally conserved domain, (TRBD) that makes extensive contacts with the RNA (TER) component of the, holoenzyme, and this interaction is thought to facilitate TERT/TER, assembly and repeat-addition processivity. Here, we present a, high-resolution structure of TRBD from Tetrahymena thermophila. The nearly, all-helical structure comprises a nucleic acid-binding fold suitable for, TER binding. An extended pocket on the surface of the protein, formed by, two conserved motifs (CP and T motifs) comprises TRBD's RNA-binding, pocket. The width and the chemical nature of this pocket suggest that it, binds both single- and double-stranded RNA, possibly stem I, and the, template boundary element (TBE). Moreover, the structure provides clues, into the role of this domain in TERT/TER stabilization and telomerase, repeat-addition processivity.

== Function ==
 +
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/TERT_TETTS TERT_TETTS] Catalytic component of telomerase, an essential ribonucleoprotein enzyme that copies new telomeric repeats onto chromosome ends by repetitively synthesizing the short telomere-repeat sequence 5'-TTGGGG-3' using an RNA template component TER (PubMed:10944124, PubMed:15696174, PubMed:17322903, PubMed:20713447, PubMed:16462747). TERT is a reverse transcriptase that adds simple sequence repeats to chromosome ends by copying a template sequence within the RNA component of the enzyme (PubMed:10944124, PubMed:15696174, PubMed:17322903, PubMed:20713447, PubMed:16462747).<ref>PMID:10944124</ref> <ref>PMID:15696174</ref> <ref>PMID:16462747</ref> <ref>PMID:17322903</ref> <ref>PMID:20713447</ref>
