Relationships between genome-wide R-loop distribution and classes of recurrent DNA breaks in neural stem/progenitor cells

Abstract Recent studies revealed classes of recurrent DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) in neural stem/progenitor cells, including transcription-associated, promoter-proximal breaks and recurrent DSB clusters in late-replicating, long neural genes that may give rise to somatic brain mosaicism. The mec...
