R looping (R loops)
A technique developed by M. Thomas, R. White, and R. Davis in which molecules of double-stranded DNA are incubated at temperatures below their denaturing temperature to open up short stretches of the DNA double helix so that single-stranded RNA molecules can begin to form DNA/RNA hybrids where the two are complementary. The DNA/RNA hybrid forms an R loop by displacing a single-stranded section of DNA.
