FunFam 6: Telomerase reverse transcriptase

Please note: GO annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

There are 1 GO terms relating to "molecular function"

The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Telomerase RNA reverse transcriptase activity GO:0003721
Catalysis of the extension of the 3' end of a DNA strand by one deoxynucleotide at a time. Cannot initiate a chain de novo; uses the RNA subunit of the telomerase enzyme complex as its template.

There are 3 GO terms relating to "biological process"

The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Telomere maintenance via telomerase GO:0007004
The maintenance of proper telomeric length by the addition of telomeric repeats by telomerase.
2 A0A1D8PEA0 (/IDA) A0A1D8PEA0 (/IDA)
Telomere maintenance via telomerase GO:0007004
The maintenance of proper telomeric length by the addition of telomeric repeats by telomerase.
2 A0A1D8PEA0 (/IMP) A0A1D8PEA0 (/IMP)
Telomere capping GO:0016233
A process in which telomeres are protected from degradation and fusion, thereby ensuring chromosome stability by protecting the ends from both degradation and from being recognized as damaged DNA. May be mediated by specific single- or double-stranded telomeric DNA binding proteins.

There are 2 GO terms relating to "cellular component"

The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Telomerase catalytic core complex GO:0000333
The minimal catalytic core of telomerase is a ribonucleoprotein complex composed of a catalytic reverse transcriptase subunit and an RNA subunit that provides the template for telomeric DNA addition.
2 A0A1D8PEA0 (/IMP) A0A1D8PEA0 (/IMP)
Telomerase holoenzyme complex GO:0005697
Telomerase is a ribonucleoprotein enzyme complex, with a minimal catalytic core composed of a catalytic reverse transcriptase subunit and an RNA subunit that provides the template for telomeric DNA addition. In vivo, the holoenzyme complex often contains additional subunits.
