Unravelling the functional significance of DDX41 in oncogenic molecular processes

Caption

The gene DDX41 is responsible for halting the progress of RNA polymerase II during transcription, which leads to the resolution of excess R-loop, with a positive effect on replication stress reduction and maintenance of genomic stability.
