Zappulla and Cech described its secondary structure as a "T," with a pseudoknot domain at the base of the  "T" connected to the BoxH/ACA region that is seperated from the Cr4-CR5 domain by a hypervariable paired region.
Zappulla and Cech described its secondary structure as a "T," with a pseudoknot domain at the base of the  "T" connected to the BoxH/ACA region that is seperated from the Cr4-CR5 domain by a hypervariable paired region. In yeast, its RNA template lies at the junction of the "T" and is used by TERT to add repeating nucleotides to lengthen the ends of chromosomes to ensure proper replication. For ten points, name this enzyme with reverse trancriptase activity, and uses that to lengthen telomeres.
