Scientists map elusive 3-D structure of telomerase enzyme, key actor in cancer, aging

  • Scientists map elusive 3-D structure of telomerase enzyme, key actor in cancer, aging - Like finally seeing the gears of a watch and how they work together, all components of an entire telomerase enzyme complex have been positioned into a three-dimensional structure for the first time. This first complete visual map of the telomerase enzyme complex, known to play a significant role in cancer and aging, is a breakthrough from UCLA and UC Berkeley biochemists.(10.1038/nature12062)
