We showed Pol II stability is regulated by SPT5/Cullin 3 Dr. Yuki Aoi, Leila Iravani & team just published & identified ARMC5 as a specific adaptor certifying elongation competent Pol IIs & making sure “bad” enzymes are eliminated! @ScienceMagazine @ScienceAdvances @MolecularCell @NUFeinbergMed @CellCellPress @NU_BMG_SQE

My lab has been working for the past 15 years to develop a method to isolate specific genomic loci to identify its chromatin composition & protein interactome. Finally,… our superb physician/scientist Dr. Bercin Cenik @bkcenik did it and here it is Not only was she able to develop this method, which she calls TurboCAS, she was able to identify known & novel regulators of heat shock & Myc expression. Cannot wait to see what Bercin and TurboCAS will discover about the molecular basis of transcriptional regulation with great impact on clinic in the next few years! @NU_BMG_SQE @NUFeinbergMed @MolecularCell
