Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> R-loops are three-stranded nucleic acid structures consisting of a DNA/RNA hybrid and a displaced single-stranded DNA. Once considered rare byproducts of transcription, R-loops are now recognized as important regulators of various nuclear processes. In particular, evidence indicates a role for R-loops in regulating DNA methylation dynamics. R-loops have been shown to promote active DNA demethyla...
