Structure of MfdN and its influence on the stability and activity of the MFD protein

Damage to actively transcribed genes is repaired at a faster rate than damage to non-transcribed genes due to the activity of proteins called transcription repair coupling factors. These proteins recognize RNA polymerases that have stalled on damaged DNA, remove them, and recruit DNA repair proteins...
