Cancer cells activate either telomerase or telomere recombination (ALT) to maintain telomere length and achieve immortalization. In this issue of , Robinson reveal an unanticipated role of the protein SLX4IP in the SUMOylation of RAP1, which enhances its extratelomeric function in activating an NF-κB-Notch signaling axis that favors ALT.
