    Abstract The nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathway removes helix-distorting lesions from DNA in all organisms. Escherichia coli has long been a model for understanding NER, which is traditionally divided into major and minor subpathways known as global genome repair (GGR) and transcription-coupled repair (TCR), respectively. TCR has been assumed to be mediated exclusively by Mfd, a DNA translocase of minimal NER phenotype. This review summarizes the evidence that shaped the traditional view of NER in bacteria, and reviews data supporting a new model in which GGR and TCR are inseparable. In this new model, RNA polymerase serves both as the essential primary sensor of bulky DNA lesions genome-wide and as the delivery platform for the assembly of functional NER complexes in living cells.

    Abstract RNA polymerase II (RNA Pol II) can backtrack during transcription elongation, exposing the 3' end of nascent RNA. Nascent RNA sequencing can approximate the location of backtracking events that are quickly resolved; however, the extent and genome-wide distribution of more persistent backtracking are unknown. Consequently, we developed a method to directly sequence the extruded, "backtracked" 3' RNA. Our data show that RNA Pol II slides backward more than 20 nt in human cells and can persist in this backtracked state. Persistent backtracking mainly occurs where RNA Pol II pauses near promoters and intron-exon junctions and is enriched in genes involved in translation, replication, and development, where gene expression is decreased if these events are unresolved. Histone genes are highly prone to persistent backtracking, and the resolution of such events is likely required for timely expression during cell division. These results demonstrate that persistent backtracking can potentially affect diverse gene expression programs.
