RNA transcripts serve as a template for double-strand break repair in human cells

Abstract Double-strand breaks (DSBs) are toxic lesions that lead to genome instability. While canonical DSB repair pathways typically operate independently of RNA, growing evidence suggests that RNA:DNA hybrids and nearby transcripts can influence repair outcomes. However, whether transcript RNA can...
