Gene: TEP1
Alternate names for this Gene: TLP1|TP1|TROVE1|VAULT2|p240
Gene Summary: This gene product is a component of the ribonucleoprotein complex responsible for telomerase activity which catalyzes the addition of new telomeres on the chromosome ends. The telomerase-associated proteins are conserved from ciliates to humans. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 14
Location in Chromosome : 14q11.2
Description of this Gene: telomerase associated protein 1
Type of Gene: protein-coding
