Solid phase chemistry to covalently and reversibly capture thiolated RNA. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Here, we describe an approach to enrich newly transcribed RNAs from primary mouse neurons using 4-thiouridine (s4U) metabolic labeling and solid phase chemistry.

The punctilious RNA polymerase II core promoter [PDF]

open access: yesGenes & Development, 2017
The signals that direct the initiation of transcription ultimately converge at the core promoter, which is the gateway to transcription. Here we provide an overview of the RNA polymerase II core promoter in bilateria (bilaterally symmetric animals). The core promoter is diverse in terms of its composition and function yet is also punctilious, as it ...

KRAS and GNAS mutations in cell‐free DNA and in circulating epithelial cells in patients with intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms—an observational pilot study

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that KRAS and GNAS mutations are more prevalent in patients with resected intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMN) compared to those under clinical surveillance. GNAS mutations significantly differ between the two patient cohorts, indicating that their absence may serve as a potential biomarker to support conservative ...

Ups and Downs of Poised RNA Polymerase II in B-Cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2016
Recent genome-wide analyses have uncovered a high accumulation of RNA polymerase II (Pol II) at the 5' end of genes. This elevated Pol II presence at promoters, referred to here as Poll II poising, is mainly (but not exclusively) attributed to temporal ...

Transcription start site scanning and the requirement for ATP during transcription initiation by RNA polymerase II [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Saccharomyces cerevisiae RNA polymerase (Pol) II locates transcription start sites (TSS) at TATA-containing promoters by scanning sequences downstream from the site of preinitiation complex formation, a process that involves the translocation of ...

N4 RNA Polymerase II, a Heterodimeric RNA Polymerase with Homology to the Single-Subunit Family of RNA Polymerases [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 2002
ABSTRACTBacteriophage N4 middle genes are transcribed by a phage-coded, heterodimeric, rifampin-resistant RNA polymerase, N4 RNA polymerase II (N4 RNAPII). Sequencing and transcriptional analysis revealed that the genes encoding the two subunits comprising N4 RNAPII are translated from a common transcript initiating at the N4 early promoter Pe3.

Structure and mechanism of the RNA polymerase II transcription machinery

open access: yesGenes & Development, 2020
In this review, Schier et al. summarize the structural and functional data that have enabled a deeper understanding of Pol II transcription mechanisms; they also highlight mechanistic questions that remain unanswered or controversial.

Cellular liquid biopsy provides unique chances for disease monitoring, preclinical model generation and therapy adjustment in rare salivary gland cancer patients

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We quantified and cultured circulating tumor cells (CTCs) of 62 patients with various cancer types and generated CTC‐derived tumoroid models from two salivary gland cancer patients. Cellular liquid biopsy‐derived information enabled molecular genetic assessment of systemic disease heterogeneity and functional testing for therapy selection in both ...

A high-throughput screen identifies that CDK7 activates glucose consumption in lung cancer cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Elevated glucose consumption is fundamental to cancer, but selectively targeting this pathway is challenging. We develop a high-throughput assay for measuring glucose consumption and use it to screen non-small-cell lung cancer cell lines against ...

Combinatorial Recruitment of CREB, C/EBPβ and c-Jun Determines Activation of Promoters upon Keratinocyte Differentiation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: Transcription factors CREB, C/EBPβ and Jun regulate genes involved in keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation. We questioned if specific combinations of CREB, C/EBPβ and c-Jun bound to promoters correlate with RNA polymerase II binding,
