Insertion of Retrotransposons at Chromosome Ends: Adaptive Response to Chromosome Maintenance

The telomerase complex is a specialized reverse transcriptase (RT) that inserts tandem DNA arrays at the linear chromosome ends and contributes to the protection of the genetic information in eukaryotic genomes. Telomerases are phylogenetically related to retrotransposons, encoding also the RT activ...
