The FANCM-BLM-TOP3A-RMI complex suppresses alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT)

ALT telomeres experience DNA damage that may drive recombination-based telomere elongation. Here, the authors reveal that FANCM plays a critical role in the suppression of ALT activity through its interaction with the BTR (BLM-TOP3A-RMI) complex.
