In an exemplary in vitro/in vivo study, 1st authors @btanalikwu.bsky.social & Alice Deshayes showed that dense linear protein arrays (e.g. telomeres) do stop loop-extruding SMCs!
Great collaboration with Marcand lab.

The good, it works well.
The bad, needs third gear and 25mph or higher.

The work shows that all SMCs, from yeast to human SMCs, form DNA-SMC biomolecular condensates at higher concentrations.
