Gene Information

human ... TERT(7015)

General description

Anti-Telomerase Antibody detects endogenous levels of total Telomerase protein.
The TERT (telomerase reverse transcriptase) gene is mapped to human chromosome 5p15.33 and encodes for a ribonucleoprotein.

Immunogen

The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human Telomerase.

Immunogen Range: 796-845

Biochem/physiol Actions

TERT (telomerase reverse transcriptase) catalyzes the de novo synthesis of telomere and results in cellular immortalization to maintain chromosomal stability. Mutations in TERT causes different types of malignancies such as gliomas, gastric cancer, and anaplastic thyroid cancer. Therefore, TERT serves as an early prognostic biomarker.
