XLF extends its range from DNA repair to replication

The close interplay between DNA replication and repair is underscored by a report from Chen et al. (2019. J. Cell Biol. https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201808134) in this issue. The authors demonstrate that the non-homologous end-joining factor XLF promotes the stability of replication forks.
