Artwork of a molecule of the enzyme telomerase showing its RNA core domain. Telomerase is an enzyme that adds DNA sequence repeats to telomeres at the ends of the chromosome. Every time a chromosome is copied, some of its telomere is lost and this must be replaced. Telomerase is a reverse transcriptase that carries its own RNA molecule.
