Computational Model Uses Language Theory to Predict DNA Shapes That Underlie Gene Expression and Disease

R-loops are structures that form when a strand of RNA (red) forms a stable structure with double-stranded DNA, causing one strand of the DNA to form a loop. R-loops are associated with gene ...
