==Overview==
The RNA component of human telomerase (hTR) includes H/ACA and CR7 domains, required for 3' end processing, localization, and accumulation. The, terminal loop of the CR7 domain contains the CAB box (ugAG) required for, targeting of scaRNAs to Cajal bodies (CB) and an uncharacterized sequence, required for accumulation and processing. To dissect out the contributions, of the CR7 stem loop to hTR processing and localization, we solved the, solution structures of the 3' terminal stem loops of hTR CR7 and U64 H/ACA, snoRNA, and the 5' terminal stem loop of U85 C/D-H/ACA scaRNA. These, structures, together with analysis of localization, processing, and, accumulation of hTRs containing nucleotide substitutions in the CR7, domain, identified the sequence and structural requirements of the hTR, processing and CB localization signals and showed that these signals are, functionally independent. Further, 3' end processing was found to be a, prerequisite for translocation of hTR to CBs.
