Research on both cancer and aging has focused attention on the regulation of telomerase, the enzyme that synthesizes the ends of chromosomal DNA. To analyze the relative importance of genetic vs. environmental factors in determining telomerase inducibility, we have compared telomerase activity in ph
Proper expression of products of the recombination-activating genes (RAGs) is essential for the development of the adaptive immune system. A major advance in the past year toward understanding RAG regulation is the establishment of green fluorescent protein (GFP)-RAG indicator mouse strains. In vivo
The human telomerase enzyme is composed of two essential components, hTR, which acts as a template for reverse transcription, and hTERT, which is the putative catalytic subunit for the enzyme. Recent studies have demonstrated a good correlation between hTERT expression and telomerase activation, whe
