Open AccessDual function of SF3B2 on chromatin and RNA to regulate transcription in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma
RNA is spliced concomitantly with transcription and the process is organized by RNA splicing factors, transcriptional regulators, and chromatin regulators. RNA is spliced in close proximity to transcription ma...

Open AccessThe 3′ Pol II pausing at replication-dependent histone genes is regulated by Mediator through Cajal bodies’ association with histone locus bodies
Non-polyadenylated mRNAs of replication-dependent histones (RDHs) are synthesized by RNA polymerase II (Pol II) at histone locus bodies (HLBs). HLBs frequently associate with Cajal bodies (CBs), in which 3′-en...

Open AccessThe role of Mediator and Little Elongation Complex in transcription termination
Mediator is a coregulatory complex that regulates transcription of Pol II-dependent genes. Previously, we showed that human Mediator subunit MED26 plays a role in the recruitment of Super Elongation Complex (S...

Anomalous Large Scavenging of 230Th and 231Pa Controlled by Particle Composition in the Northwestern North Pacific
We report the role of particle composition and lateral particle movement that influences the oceanic distribution of 231Pa and 230Th. Settling particles were collected during sediment trap experiments. These and ...
