The protein subunit of telomerase displays patterns of dynamic evolution and conservation across different metazoan taxa
BACKGROUND: Most animals employ telomerase, which consists of a catalytic subunit known as the telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) and an RNA template, to maintain telomere ends. Given the importance of TERT and telomere biology in core metazoan life history traits, like ageing and the control o...
