Senataxin mediates R-loop resolution on HPV episomes
24 Jul 2024
Abstract excerpt
Three-stranded DNA-RNA structures known as R-loops that form during papillomavirus transcription can cause transcription-replication conflicts and lead to DNA damage. We found that R-loops accumulated at the viral early promoter in human papillomavirus (HPV) episomal cells but were greatly reduced in cells with integrated HPV genomes. RNA-DNA helicases unwind R-loops and allow for transcription and replication to...
