Histone supply: Multitiered regulation ensures chromatin dynamics throughout the cell cycle

S Mendiratta, A Gatto, G Almouzni - Journal of Cell Biology, 2019 - rupress.org
As the building blocks of chromatin, histones are central to establish and maintain particular
chromatin states associated with given cell fates. Importantly, histones exist as distinct …

Nuclear bodies: random aggregates of sticky proteins or crucibles of macromolecular assembly?

AG Matera, M Izaguire-Sierra, K Praveen… - Developmental cell, 2009 - cell.com

Nuclear sorting of short RNA polymerase II transcripts

W Garland, TH Jensen - Molecular Cell, 2024 - cell.com
Mammalian genomes produce an abundance of short RNA. This is, to a large extent, due to
the genome-wide and spurious activity of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII). However, it is also …

CDK11, a splicing-associated kinase regulating gene expression

M Hluchý, D Blazek - Trends in Cell Biology, 2024 - cell.com
The ability of a cell to properly express its genes depends on optimal transcription and
splicing. RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) transcribes protein-coding genes and produces pre …
