Term Information

Accession: GO:0000781
Name: chromosome, telomeric region
Ontology: cellular_component
Synonyms: telomere, nuclear chromosome, telomere, nuclear chromosome, telomeric region
Alternate IDs: GO:0000784
Definition: The end of a linear chromosome, required for the integrity and maintenance of the end. A chromosome telomere usually includes a region of telomerase-encoded repeats the length of which rarely exceeds 20 bp each and that permits the formation of a telomeric loop (T-loop). The telomeric repeat region is usually preceded by a sub-telomeric region that is gene-poor but rich in repetitive elements. Some telomeres only consist of the latter part (for eg. D. melanogaster telomeres). Source: GOC:elh
Comment: Note that this term can be used in place of the obsolete cellular component term 'telomere ; GO:0005696'. Use with caution because this term refers to a specific region of the chromosome and not a protein complex.
