I'm very happy to share this review, written with Dan Blears, on a new interpretation of promoter-proximal pausing in the context of a transcription checkpoint. We're not the only ones with these ideas, but they've not been sufficiently explored the way we do here: genesdev.cshlp.org/content/earl...

Extremely proud to share the impressive work done by Anouk Olthof et al. on how cells maintain healthy levels of RNAPII, and how they respond when levels are too low. Fascinating stuff, we think www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Systems-level feedback loops maintain gene expression homeostasis following RNA polymerase II dosage perturbation
Transcription is regulated by sequence-specific transcription factors and enzymes allowing access to genes in chromatin. However, recent data indicate that the abundance of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) ...

Excited to share our latest paper, now online in Molecular Cell. First, it shows that the RNAPII-CTD kinases CDK9 and CDK12 are Ser5-Ser2 kinases. Secondly, it describes the activation mechanism of CDK12/13 by PAF1C complex. Congratulations to David López Martínez and coauthors!
