A new gene editor takes advantage of CRISPR-associated proteins to insert whole genes into the genome, scientists report.

The authors confirm that telomeres in telomerase-positive cells terminate with 5'-ATC in a Pot1-dependent manner, and demonstrate that this principle holds true in telomerase-negative ALT cells as ...
