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.

Different functions of PHF10 isoforms – subunits of the PBAF chromatin remodeling complex
Chromatin remodelling multiprotein complexes play an important role in regulation of gene expression in embryogenesis and in the adult organism. Mutations in the subunits of the complexes are often lethal or lead to developmental defects.

Master Transcription Factors and Mediator Establish Super-Enhancers at Key Cell Identity Genes
Summary Master transcription factors Oct4, Sox2 and Nanog bind enhancer elements and recruit Mediator to activate much of the gene expression program of pluripotent embryonic stem cells (ESCs).

Transcriptional enhancers: Transcription, function and flexibility [PDF]
Active transcriptional enhancers are often transcribed to eRNAs, whose changing levels mirror those of the target gene mRNA. We discuss some of the reported functions of these eRNAs and their likely diversity to allow utilization of distinct cis regulatory regions to enhance transcription in diverse developmental and cellular contexts.
