Scope and Contents

Contents

To test the effect of transcription-generated torsional stress on nucleosome dynamics and RNA polymerase II (Pol II) kinetics in
Drosophila
cells, a new study reports a genome-wide sequencing-based assay to measure torsional states at the gene level. Inhibition of topoisomerases leads to rapid accumulation of torsional strain accompanied by c...
