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, ...

This new review article highlights the pivotal and paradoxical role of R-loops in maintaining genomic stability while simultaneously posing risks to it. These three-stranded nucleic acid structures, ...

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 ...

This study is achieved by Professor Wei Xu’s research team from Agricultural Genomics Institute at Shenzhen, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences. The research team established mDRIP-seq, a ...

There are many different ways in which the genetic material DNA can be damaged, resulting in the development of diseases such as cancer. Certain forms of DNA damage are associated with so-called ...
