Abstract
In this work, we present an improved fluorescence-based R-loop detection method that is more accurate and specific compared to the current standard practice of using the S9.6 antibody in immunofluorescence applications. We used this new procedure to characterize and provide novel insights on cellular RNA-DNA hybrid signals. Additionally, we investigated the nucleotide excision repair (NER)-mediated R-loop processing and explored the mechanisms underlying its impact on genome stability.
