So pleased to see my PhD project published, great work by everyone involved! Together we uncovered how regulation of the BTRR complex is crucial to protect centromeres during mitosis.

#New-Paper Rass laboratory reveal DNA2 to be a gatekeeper to homologous recombination at stalled DNA replication forks, rrequired to stave off cellular senescence. Their findings provide a molecular explanation for the association of DNA2 with primordial dwarfism and cancer.
