Transcriptional and Post-Transcriptional Regulation of Autophagy [PDF]
Autophagy is a widely conserved process in eukaryotes that is involved in a series of physiological and pathological events, including development, immunity, neurodegenerative disease, and tumorigenesis. It is regulated by nutrient deprivation, energy stress, and other unfavorable conditions through multiple pathways.

Boosting transcription by transcription: enhancer-associated transcripts [PDF]
Enhancers are traditionally viewed as DNA sequences located some distance from a promoter that act in cis and in an orientation-independent fashion to increase utilization of specific promoters and thereby regulate gene expression. Much progress has been made over the last decade toward understanding how these distant elements interact with target ...

Dynamics of transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation [PDF]
AbstractDespite gene expression programs being notoriously complex, RNA abundance is usually assumed as a proxy for transcriptional activity. Recently developed approaches, able to disentangle transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulatory processes, have revealed a more complex scenario.

NRF2, a Transcription Factor for Stress Response and Beyond
Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) is a transcription factor that regulates the cellular defense against toxic and oxidative insults through the expression of genes involved in oxidative stress response and drug detoxification.

Transcriptional Activation: Tuning-up transcription [PDF]
Eukaryotic transcription is a complex process, and recent results identify multiple steps that need to be stimulated to activate transcription, one of which is a change in conformation of the general transcription factor TFIIB.

Landscape of transcription in human cells
Eukaryotic cells make many types of primary and processed RNAs that are found either in specific subcellular compartments or throughout the cells. A complete catalogue of these RNAs is not yet available and their characteristic subcellular localizations ...

The Dangers of Transcription [PDF]
Transcription is obviously essential, but even a good thing can be dangerous at times. In this issue, Lin et al. (2009) provide evidence that binding of the transcription machinery may predispose genome regions to breakage and translocations that may lead to cancer.

The reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) is the most sensitive method for the detection of low-abundance mRNA, often obtained from limited tissue samples.
