Where would one expect to find the most telomerase?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Telomerase is an enzyme that adds DNA sequence repeats ("TTAGGG" in all vertebrates) to the 3' end of DNA strands in the telomere regions, which are found at the ends of eukaryotic chromosomes. This enzyme is particularly active in cells that divide frequently or have the potential to divide frequently, such as germ cells (which give rise to gametes), stem cells, and certain white blood cells. Male germ cells need to maintain their telomeres for fertility over the lifespan of an individual, hence they have high levels of telomerase activity. In contrast, somatic cells like skin and nerve cells have lower levels of telomerase activity, which decreases as an individual ages, leading to telomere shortening and cellular aging.
