R-loops are structures that form when a strand of RNA (red) forms a stable structure with double-stranded DNA, causing one strand of the DNA to form a loop. R-loops are associated with gene ...
A new study by researchers at the German Center for Infection Research (DZIF) and Heidelberg University Hospital has identified RNA:DNA hybrids, known as R-loops, as structural features that guide the ...
Image Caption: The factors contributing to R-loop formation. Several factors contribute to R-loop formation, including RNA components, specific DNA structures, histone and RNA modifications, ...
