Usefulness of Immunological Detection of the Human Telomerase Reverse Transcriptase by Annalisa Volpi, Sara Bravaccini, Laura Medri, Serenella Cerasoli, Michele Gaudio, Dino Amadori

“…Whether hTERT protein detected by immunostaining with hTERT-specific Tel 3 36-10 antibody is actually the degraded form of the protein that retains hTERT antigenicity but not enzymatic function, or whether it represents the real, potentially functional catalytic subunit of the enzyme, immunohistochemistry would not seem to represent a useful tool to investigate the role of telomerase and the mechanisms involved in its regulation.…”
