Osmotic disruption of chromatin induces Topoisomerase 2 activity at sites of transcriptional stress

Abstract Transcription generates superhelical stress in DNA that poses problems for genome stability, but determining when and where such stress arises within chromosomes is challenging. Here, using G1-arrested S. cerevisiae cells, and employing rapid fixation and ultra-sensitive enrichment, we util...
