Pathogenic bacteria experience pervasive RNA polymerase backtracking during infection
ABSTRACTPathogenic bacteria and their eukaryotic hosts are in a constant arms race. Hosts have numerous defense mechanisms, including some that cause DNA damage. How these host defense mechanisms impact molecular transactions along the bacterial chromosome during infection is unclear. This is partia...
