[[Telomerase]] (TEL) adds DNA repeats to the tail end of telomeres.  It carries its own RNA.  The human TEL is composed of 2 [[Telomerase Reverse Transcriptase]] (TERT), 2 Telomerase RNA (TERC) and 2 dyskerin (DKC1) molecules.  For additional details see [[ Catalytic Subunit of T. Castaneum TERT Polymerase]].
