Genome-wide mapping of helicase-generated ssDNA reveals Hrq1 activity at RNA polymerase III-transcribed genes

DNA helicases preserve genome stability by unwinding DNA during replication, repair, recombination, and transcription, yet their sites of action in vivo remain difficult to define.

DNA helicases preserve genome stability by unwinding DNA during replication, repair, recombination, and transcription, yet their sites of action in vivo remain difficult to define. Here, we describe a sequencing-based strategy to map helicase activity genome-wide by coupling…
