It’s been a long but beautiful journey. Grateful for the support from all co-authors and colleagues, especially @filizkuybu.bsky.social 🙌, with whom I shared many long days and restless nights. Many more questions lie ahead!

We reveal cryo-EM structures of the MRN complex bound to DNA & TRF2 - showing how DNA breaks are sensed and regulated at telomeres.
Fantastic work by first authors @yilanfan.bsky.social @filizkuybu.bsky.social & Hengjun!
