Temporal regulation of head-on transcription at replication initiation sites
Summary: Head-on (HO) collisions between the DNA replication machinery and RNA polymerase over R-loop forming sequences (RLFS) are genotoxic, leading to replication fork blockage and DNA breaks. Current models suggest that HO collisions are avoided through replication initiation site (RIS) positioni...
