Figure 1: Transcription regulation by DNA topoisomerases 1 and 2. In this Progress article, we discuss recent findings that highlight the significance of eukaryotic DNA topoisomerases in transcription ...
Transcription is the process by which DNA is converted into messenger RNA in preparation for translation into a functional product. Extrinsic agents, such as ionizing radiation or chemical mutagen and ...
The accuracy of transcription processes varies widely among species, across cell types and within distinct regions of the genome, with profound consequences for health and disease.DNA transcription is ...
A team of researchers has found that transcription factors have a tendency to bind strongly to 'mismatched' sections of DNA, i.e. sections of the genome that were not copied correctly. The strong ...
