A stylized illustration of an X-shaped metaphase chromosome with red-capped telomeres at all four chromosomal ends. The image depicts a nucleoprotein complex within the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell (cytogenetics and molecular biology), showing sister chromatids joined at the centromere. Telomeres, composed of repetitive DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) bound by protective proteins, cap and protect chromosome termini, prevent end-to-end fusion, and preserve genome stability; their length is maintained by telomerase (TERT, telomerase reverse transcriptase) in certain cells.
