Nascent RNA sequencing reveals distinct features in plant transcription

TL;DR: An extensive catalog of nascent and steady-state transcripts in Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings was generated using global nuclear run-on sequencing, 5′GRO-seq, and RNA-seq and published maize data to capture characteristics of plant transcription to provide insight into plant transcription and eukaryotic gene expression as a whole.
Journal ArticleDOI

The punctilious RNA polymerase II core promoter.

TL;DR: An expanded view of the core promoter that comprises the classical DNA sequence motifs, sequence-specific DNA-binding transcription factors, chromatin signals, and DNA structure is described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plant synthetic promoters and transcription factors.

TL;DR: The recent advances in synthetic promoters and TFs in plants are reviewed and a speculate on their future is speculated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Promoter analysis and prediction in the human genome using sequence-based deep learning models.

TL;DR: This work further develops the deep learning approach that was relatively successful to discriminate short promoter and non-promoter sequences and predicts the exact positions of the TSS inside the genomic sequences testing every possible location.

ElemeNT: a computational tool for detecting core promoter elements.

TL;DR: The Elements Navigation Tool (ElemeNT) is a user-friendly web-based, interactive tool for prediction and display of putative core promoter elements and their biologically-relevant combinations, and the CORE database summarizes ElemeNT-predicted core promoter Elements near CAGE and RNA-seq-defined Drosophila melanogaster transcription start sites (TSSs).

Promoter elements associated with RNA Pol II stalling in the Drosophila embryo.

TL;DR: A combined computational and experimental analysis of stalled promoters to determine how they come to bind Pol II in the early Drosophila embryo reveals a shared sequence motif, the “pause button” (PB): KCGRWCG.

Crosstalk between mRNA 3′ End Processing and Transcription Initiation

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that 3' end formation stimulates transcription initiation and suggested that coordinated recycling of factors from a gene terminator back to the promoter is essential for sustaining continued transcription.

Paused Pol II Coordinates Tissue Morphogenesis in the Drosophila Embryo

TL;DR: It is concluded that paused Pol II and transcriptional synchrony are essential for coordinating cell behavior during morphogenesis and computational modeling of the dorsal-ventral patterning network recapitulates these variable and bistable gastrulation profiles and emphasizes the importance of timing of gene activation in development.
Journal ArticleDOI

A paired-end sequencing strategy to map the complex landscape of transcription initiation.

TL;DR: A paired- end sequencing strategy is described, which enables more robust mapping and characterization of capped transcripts and demonstrated paired-end TSS analysis to be a powerful method to uncover the transcriptional complexity of eukaryotic genomes.

Human TAFII105 Is a Cell Type–Specific TFIID Subunit Related to hTAFII130

TL;DR: It is reported that differentiated B cells contain a novel substoichiometric TAF of 105 kDa not found associated with TFIID isolated from other cell types, suggesting that TAFII105 is a cell type-specific subunit of TFIIDs that may be responsible for mediating transcription by a subset of activators in B cells.
