Telomēras ( grieķu: τέλος, telos — gals + grieķu: μέρος, meros — daļa) ir atkārtojošos nukleotīdu sekvences, kas atrodas hromosomu galos, pasargājot tās no salipšanas ar blakus esošajām hromosomām. Mugurkaulniekiem nukleotīdu sekvence telomēros ir TT A GGG, kas ir komplementāra šādai — AATCCC sekvencei.^[1] Cilvēka hromosomās telomēras nukleotīdu sekvence atkārtojas aptuveni 2500 reižu.^[2] Cilvēkam telomēru garums svārstās no 11 bāzu pāriem piedzimšanas brīdī^[3] līdz 4 bāzu pāriem vecumdienās.^[4]^[5]
