This study identifies G-quadruplex DNA as a key factor in homologous recombination, showing that DHX36 suppresses G4-mediated HR and its loss enhances repair and promotes ALT.

This study identifies PRDX1's role in preventing oxidative damage to the nucleolar genome by maintaining rDNA transcription and ribosome biogenesis.

This study identifies novel genes that modulate the ALT pathway using a high-throughput imaging screen, revealing both promoting and inhibiting factors and demonstrating pharmacological modulation potential.

This study identifies FDA-approved drugs that bind G-quadruplexes in SARS-CoV-2 genomes, showing significant inhibition of viral replication in hamsters and cell cultures comparable to Remdesivir.
