APOBEC3-dependent kataegis and TREX1-driven chromothripsis during telomere crisis

Chromothripsis and kataegis are frequently observed in cancer and may arise from telomere crisis, a period of genome instability during tumorigenesis when depletion of the telomere reserve generates unstable dicentric chromosomes(1–5). Here we examine the mechanism underlying chromothripsis and kata...
