Background

Telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) is a ribonucleoprotein enzyme essential for eukaryotic chromosomal termini replication that is active in progenitor as well as cancer cells, and stays inactive or show very low activity in normal somatic cells. TERT is the catalytic component of the holoenzyme complex (TERT, DKC1, WDR79/TCAB1, NOP10, NHP2, GAR1, TEP1, EST1A, POT1 and TERC) that implicates in telomeres elongation by acting as a reverse transcriptase adding simple sequence repeats to chromosome ends by copying a template sequence within RNA component of the enzyme. For executing its versatile functions, TERT can interact with HSP90A , PTGES3, HSPA1A, RAN , XPO1, PTPN11, NCL, SMARCA4, MCRS1, PIF1, PML and GNL3L. TERT modulates Wnt signaling and plays important roles in aging and anti-apoptosis. Telomerase activation has been implicated in cell immortalization/ carcinogenesis and defects in TERT are associated with susceptibilty to aplastic anemia, coronary artery disease (CAD), dyskeratosis congenita autosomal dominant type 2 (DKCA2), pulmonary fibrosis, and/or bone marrow failure, telomere-related, type 1 (PFBMFT1), dyskeratosis congenita autosomal recessive type 4 (DKCB4), susceptibility to pulmonary fibrosis idiopathic (IPF).
