Telomeres are actually chains of molecules. They have often been compared to the blank leaders on film and recording tape which are intended to provide a "buffer", protecting the vital information during handling. Telomeres perform a similar function during the cell replication process.When a cell divides, the spiral DNA molecule must split in half and reassemble a copy of itself. Protecting the vital DNA molecule from being copied out of synch, telomeres provide a kind of safety zone where mis-alignments (which are inevitable) will not result in any of the important DNA code being lost.Perhaps the best analogy I have heard is to compare the telomeres to the white margin surrounding an important type written document. In this analogy, the printed text is the vital DNA code while the white space is the "blank" telomeres. Imagine that this paper is repeatedly slapped on a copy machine, a copy is made, and then that copy is used to make another copy. Each time the paper is subject to errors of alignment and these errors accumulate. After enough copying, it is probable that the white space will diminish and some of the actual text will not be copied. That's what happens inside our cells and it is the reason we get old and die.Read Full Article @http://www.viewzone.com/telomerase.html
