Telomerase-Associated Protein 1
A non-catalytic subunit of Telomerase. It is the homolog of Tetrahymena p80 telomerase protein. It is also a component of Vault, a large cytoplasmic ribonucleoprotein of undetermined function. In addition to TEP1, telomerase also contains an RNA component, TERC, and an enzymatic component, TERT. (NCI Thesaurus)
