Pioneering Technique Reveals New Layer of Human Gene Regulation

Friday, February 9, 2024

Now a new study led by Nudler's team at NYU Langone Health reveals that their new technique, Long Range Cleavage sequencing (LORAX-seq), can directly detect where backtracking events begin and end.

Key Points: 
  • Now a new study led by Nudler's team at NYU Langone Health reveals that their new technique, Long Range Cleavage sequencing (LORAX-seq), can directly detect where backtracking events begin and end.
  • The results also suggest that persistent backtracking occurs frequently throughout genomes, happens more often near certain gene types, and has functions well beyond DNA repair.
  • "If further work expands our findings to different developmental programs and pathological conditions, backtracking may be akin to epigenetics, the discovery of which revealed a surprising new layer of gene regulation without changing the DNA code."
  • Locked, backtracked complexes are less likely to be rescued by TFIIS-driven cleavage, and more likely to delay transcription of the gene involved.
