R-loops in proliferating cells but not in the brain: implications for AOA2 and other autosomal recessive ataxias.

R-loops in proliferating cells but not in the brain: implications for AOA2 and other autosomal recessive ataxias.

Disruption of the Setx gene, defective in ataxia oculomotor apraxia type 2 (AOA2) leads to the accumulation of DNA/RNA hybrids (R-loops), failure of meiotic recombination and infertility in mice. We report here the presence of R-loops in the testes from other autosomal recessive ataxia mouse models,...
