Rapid UPF1 depletion illuminates the temporal dynamics of the NMD-regulated human transcriptome UPF1 depletion inhibits nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) and stabilizes direct target transcripts within hours. Boehm et al. use conditional protein degradation and advanced transcriptomics to map t...

Transcription of a centromere-enriched retroelement and local retention of its RNA are significant features of the CENP-A chromatin landscape - Genome Biology Background Centromeres depend on chromatin containing the conserved histone H3 variant CENP-A for function and inheritance, while the role of centromeric DNA repeats remains unclear. Retroelements are...

Our paper on a centromere-enriched retroelement is out! link.springer.com/article/10.1... Congratulations to all the authors! Comments and reposts welcome and appreciated 🧬🔬
