TEP1 telomerase associated protein 1 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 7011)
Symbol: TEP1
Full name: telomerase associated protein 1
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: TLP1; TP1; TROVE1; VAULT2; p240
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. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]
Expression: Ubiquitous expression in duodenum (RPKM 11.6), small intestine (RPKM 7.0) and 24 other tissues
Orthologs: mouse
Gene size: 47835bp
Exon count: 55
