The proliferative potential of eukaryotic cells is critically dependent upon the maintenance of functional telomeres, the protein-DNA complexes that cap the ends of chromosomes. A paper published in this issue of Aging describes that the telomere protein tankyrase 1 regulates DNA damage responses at telomeres.
