Topoisomerase 1 prevents replication stress at R-loop-enriched transcription termination sites

While R-loops can alter cell homeostasis, it is unclear what determines their toxicity. Here, the authors, by using Top1 knockdown as a tool to enhance the formation of R-loops at certain genomic sites, reveal and characterize a proportion of R-loops that are more toxic to the cell by causing DNA da...
