Researchers from the Institute of Biochemistry and Biophysics PAS and the International Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology have developed a new method for detecting RNA/DNA hybrids found in R-loop structures. R-loops are crucial nucleic acid structures that occur when a newly transcribed RNA molecule hybridizes with a complementary DNA strand. This process creates an (…)
