Title
DNA Conformational Transitions Induced by Supercoiling Control Transcription in Chromatin
Abstract
Regulation of transcription in eukaryotes is considered in the light of recent findings demonstrating the presence of negative and positive superhelical tension in chromatin. This tension induces conformational transitions in DNA duplex. Particularly, the transition into A-form renders DNA accessible and waylaying for initiation of transcription producing RNA molecules long known to belong to the A-conformation. Competition between conformational transitions in various DNA sequences for the energy of elastic spring opens a possibility for understanding of fine tuning of transcription at a distance.

Biomarker Insights Paper Endorsed by Editor in ChiefWed 07 Oct, 2015
Interview with Professor Jamie DaviesIt's been a great experience publishing in Clinical Medicine Insights: Therapeutics. I'm really impressed with the high quality, professional and constructive of peer review in the short time-frame. The editorial team is very helpful and I always received quick answers when I had questions. I am glad to have worked with Libertas Academica and I highly recommend publishing in Clinical Medicine Insights: Therapeutics.
