Abstract excerpt
DNA supercoiling is known to modulate gene expression. The functional relationship between DNA supercoiling and transcription initiation has been established genetically and biochemically. The molecular mechanism whereby DNA supercoiling regulates gene expression remains unclear however. Quite commonly, the same gene responds to the same DNA supercoiling change differently when the gene is positioned at different...
