Abstract
Gene loops have been described in different organisms from yeast to human and form through interaction between components of the transcription pre-initiation complex and Ssu72, a member of the 3' end cleavage and polyadenylation complex. A recent study by Tan-Wong et al. reports a new role for gene loops in promoting ORF transcription directionality from otherwise bidirectional promoters.Entities:
