Primase promotes the competition between transcription and replication on the same template strand resulting in DNA damage

Abstract Transcription-replication conflicts (TRCs), especially Head-On TRCs (HO-TRCs) can introduce R-loops and DNA damage, however, the underlying mechanisms are still largely unclear. We previously identified a chloroplast-localized RNase H1 protein AtRNH1C that can remove R-loops and relax HO-TR...
