R loops and links to human disease
P Richard, JL Manley - Journal of molecular biology, 2017 - Elsevier
Aberrant R-loop structures are increasingly being realized as an important contributor to

Genome-wide distribution of RNA-DNA hybrids identifies RNase H targets in tRNA genes, retrotransposons and mitochondria
During transcription, the nascent RNA can invade the DNA template, forming extended RNA-
DNA duplexes (R-loops). Here we employ ChIP-seq in strains expressing or lacking RNase …
