    Chromatin run-on and sequencing maps the transcriptional regulatory landscape of glioblastoma multiforme

    The human genome encodes a variety of poorly understood RNA species that remain challenging to identify using existing genomic tools. We developed chromatin run-on and sequencing (ChRO-seq) to map the location...

    Base-pair-resolution genome-wide map** of active RNA polymerases using precision nuclear run-on (PRO-seq)

    Mahat et al. describe how to map the genome-wide positions of active RNA polymerases using a modified nuclear run-on approach called PRO-seq. Details for PRO-cap, a modification that identifies transcription star...

    Identification of active transcriptional regulatory elements from GRO-seq data

    Using data from global run-on and sequencing (GRO-seq) or related methods, the dREG software identifies a new class of transcriptional regulatory elements with strong evidence for directing active transcription.

    Analysis of nascent RNA identifies a unified architecture of initiation regions at mammalian promoters and enhancers

    John Lis, Adam Siepel and colleagues map transcription start sites across the genome in two human cell lines using a nuclear run-on protocol called GRO-cap. They find a common architecture of initiation at bot...

    Nuclear stability and transcriptional directionality separate functionally distinct RNA species

    Mammalian genomes are pervasively transcribed, yielding a complex transcriptome with high variability in composition and cellular abundance. Although recent efforts have identified thousands of new long non-co...

    X chromosome dosage compensation via enhanced transcriptional elongation in Drosophila

    Different organisms use a variety of mechanisms to compensate for X chromosome dosage imbalance between the sexes. In Drosophila, the MSL (Male-specific lethal) complex increases transcription on the single X chr...

    Breaking barriers to transcription elongation

  8. Many RNA polymerase II (Pol II)-transcribed genes are regulated at the level of transcription elongation, which has three main stages: promoter escape, promote...
