Fig. 3

a The distribution of the log2 termination efficiency (see Methods) for each Rho-dependent terminator in WT, RhoD210G and RhoL187R strains (left panel). Meta-analysis of the average readthrough past Rho-dependent termination sites in WT, RhoD210G and RhoL187R strains. The dashed line represents the termination site (right panel). b Scatterplots comparing the NTS RPKM (RNA-seq) in WT vs RhoL187R (top) or RhoD210G (bottom) mutants. Genes are colored based on their fold increase in the Rho mutant compared to WT. Blue genes had a greater than 4-fold increase in antisense transcription and yellow genes had a 2-4-fold increase in antisense transcription. c The recovery of TT-CPD lesions in WT, RhoD210G, and RhoL187R strains (****p < 10−77). The box shows the interquartile range (IQR), the line shows the median, and the whiskers extend to 1.5xIQR. The top of the box represents the 75th percentile and bottom represents the 25th percentile. n denotes the number of genes in each plot. P-values were calculated using a paired Wilcoxon signed rank test.
