We're excited to share this work! Have had a lot of fun trying to tackle this problem & some surprising results along the way.
What happens when you suddenly remove half of an essential enzyme from cells? 🤔
We watched in real-time as cells deploy multiple backup strategies to buffer against changes in RNA Pol II abundance.

Hierarchical buffering of cellular RNA polymerase II pools maintains transcriptional homeostasis
RNA polymerase II (Pol II) abundance and transcriptional output are coordinated across diverse conditions to maintain mRNA homeostasis. To determine whether Pol II acts as a limiting factor for transc...
