DescriptionFLAG-SNAP-hTERT expressing HeLa Cell Line
OverviewTo facilitate reliable detection of the endogenous TERT protein, a FLAG-SNAP tag was fused to the N-terminus of the TERT locus in HeLa cells. The FLAG-SNAP tag does not impair the function of the endogenous hTERT protein. Efficient immunopurification (IP) of the active telomerase ribonucleoprotein complexes may be accomplished by using the well-characterized FLAG antibody. The SNAP tag may be used to visualize subcellular localization of the low abundant endogenous TERT protein.

Background InformationTelomerase play a critical role in regulating proliferation and senescence in normal somatic cells as well as most cancer cells. In humans, the telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) is a lowly expressed protein with only several hundred molecules per cell. The low expression has made it difficult to detect, purify and study TERT activity from the endogenous loci.
