Positive supercoiling favors transcription elongation through lac repressor-mediated DNA loops

Some proteins, like the lac repressor (LacI), mediate long-range loops that alter DNA topology and create torsional barriers. During transcription, RNA polymerase generates supercoiling that may facilitate passage through such barriers. We monitored E. coli RNA polymerase progress along templates in...
