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).
