Characterizing CDK12 and CDK13 Activity in Transcription and mRNA Biogenesis in Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells

TL;DR: The RNA Polymerase II (RNAPII) C-terminal domain (CTD) heptapeptide repeat (YSPTSPS) is dynamically phosphorylated during transcription.

Modulator of Mesenchymal Stem Cell Differentiation

TL;DR: It is reported that a 14-3-3–binding protein, TAZ (transcriptional coactivator with PDZ-binding motif), coactivates Runx2- dependent gene transcription while repressing PPARg-dependent gene transcription, indicating that TAZ functions as a molecular rheostat that modulates MSC differentiation.

Directin vivomapping of functional suppressors in glioblastoma genome

TL;DR: This study developed an adeno-associated virus (AAV) mediated autochthonous CRISPR screen and directly mapped functional suppressors in the GBM genome and provides a systematic functional landscape of GBM suppressors directly in vivo, opening new paths for high-throughput molecular mapping and cancer phenotyping.

Pooled AAV-CRISPR Screen with Targeted Amplicon Sequencing

TL;DR: A new technological approach, Pooled AAV-CRISPR Screen with Targeted Amplicon Sequencing (PASTAS), is developed and demonstrated its application for directly mapping functional cancer driver variants in the mouse liver in an autochthonous manner.
