Widespread divergent transcription from bacterial and archaeal promoters is a consequence of DNA sequence symmetry

Transcription initiates at promoters, DNA regions recognised by a DNA-dependent RNA polymerase. We previously identified horizontally acquired Escherichia coli promoters where the direction of transcription was unclear. Here, we show that more than half of these promoters are bidirectional. Using ge...
