Homology-directed DNA repair is essential for genome maintenance through templated DNA synthesis. Alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT) necessitates homology-directed DNA repair to maintain telomeres in about 10–15% of human cancers. How DNA damage induces assembly and execution of a DNA replication complex (break-induced replisome) at telomer...
