| rdfs:comment | - Telomeres テロメア, teromea?), also known as Soul Tickets, are the parts of the Reyvateils that rule over their life span. While the Telomeres in human DNA have the effect of determining the life span of the cells, the Reyvateils' Telomere are completely different things, and besides both having the same name due to their functions, they don't have anything else in common. In the case of the Reyvateils, the Telomere are located in the hexagonal section of the hinges in the Triangular Nuclear Loop, which serves as the Heart of the Reyvateils, and they determine how long the Reyvateil will live. In other words, they are like a countdown timer that determines when the Reyvateil will die. However, they don't serve as a power source, or anything similar.
- A Telomere is a part of the human chromosome. Doctor. Jennifer Keller has said that each time a cell divides, the chromosome is torn apart and rebuilt, so in the process, a small amount of the telomere gets used up. As a result, telomeres become shorter over time. The more humans age, the shorter they get.
- In 2154, Doctor Phlox studied a cell sample of T'Pau that was being used to implicate her in a bombing of the United Earth Embassy. By examining the telomeres, Phlox found that the DNA on the bomb had been taken from T'Pau when she was an infant, and that she was therefore not responsible for the bombing. (ENT: "The Forge")

| abstract | - A Telomere is a part of the human chromosome. Doctor. Jennifer Keller has said that each time a cell divides, the chromosome is torn apart and rebuilt, so in the process, a small amount of the telomere gets used up. As a result, telomeres become shorter over time. The more humans age, the shorter they get. When the First Atlantis Reconnaissance Team discovered Dr. Carson Beckett on one of Michael Kenmore's outposts, since he died a year previously, they wondered who he is. Keller discovered that his telomeres were 30% shorter than they should be for a man of his age, meaning that his original DNA came from an adult cell; one where the telomeres had already started to degrade, proving Beckett as a clone.

(ENT: "The Forge") According to the text commentary on the Star Trek: Enterprise season 4 DVD set, the computer graphic displaying T'Pau's telomeres was a mistake. A special computer graphic was prepared, but a last-minute mix-up resulted in a generic display featuring bacteria, which can be seen on computer screens in sickbay throughout the run of Star Trek: Enterprise.
