DNA supercoiling-mediated G4/R-loop formation tunes transcription by controlling the access of RNA polymerase

Abstract RNA polymerase (RNAP) is a processive motor that modulates DNA supercoiling and reshapes DNA structures. The feedback loop between the DNA topology and transcription remains elusive. Here, we investigate the impact of potential G-quadruplex forming sequences (PQS) on transcription in respon...
