Great talk yesterday by @hilgerslab.bsky.social on RNA complexity in the nervous system @cgen2025.bsky.social @ucph.bsky.social mRNA isoform regulation occurs at multiple levels, with crosstalk between start and end of mRNA transcripts and serves a critical role to safeguard neuronal gene expression

What is the function of the RNAPII-interacting SCAF proteins? In our latest work, led by Smaragda Kompocholi, we show that SCAF1 shapes mRNA isoform expression during neuronal differentiation 🧬 🧠 Loss of SCAF1 → shorter transcripts 📄 Interested in the full story? www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

What happens to transcription upon oxidative DNA damage? 🧬💥 RNAPII halts instantly within genes ⛔️ and even more surprisingly: It restarts from where it stopped without leaving the DNA template 🚦 👀📄 How does this happen? Find out in our new preprint👇 www.biorxiv.org/cgi/content/...

UV or gamma irradiation, as well as certain chemicals, generate DNA damage that disrupts transcription through a variety of well-characterised mechanisms. In contrast, the transcriptional response to ...
