RpII215 Antibody

1. Study measured the first wave of de novo transcription in living Drosophila embryos using dual-fluorescence detection of nascent transcripts containing 5' MS2 and 3' PP7 RNA stem loops. Pol II elongation rates of 2.4-3.0 kb/min were observed, approximately twice as fast as earlier estimates PMID: 28457866
2. Phosphorylation of the C-terminal domain of RNA polymerase II (CTD) plays an essential role in eukaryotic transcription by recruiting transcriptional regulatory factors to the active polymerase. This study shows that Tyrosine 1 is required for CTD phosphorylation by Erk2. PMID: 28103682
3. This action of GAF on nucleosomes is at least partially independent of paused Pol II because intergenic GAF binding sites with little or no Pol II also show GAF-dependent nucleosome displacement. PMID: 25815464
4. Loss of dPNUTS function or specific disruption of its ability to bind PP1 results in hyperphosphorylation of the RNAPII CTD in whole animal extracts and on chromosomes PMID: 24204300
5. Determined are the kinetic and structural properties of Drosophila Ssu72-symplekin in complex with the C-terminal domain of RNA polymerase II peptide with consecutive phosphorylated Thr4 and Ser5. [Ssu72] PMID: 23844594
6. A novel single-nucleotide mutation in the 3' UTR of the RNPII215 gene leads to a reduced number of nuclear divisions that is accompanied by premature transcription of early zygotic genes and cellularization. PMID: 23290555
7. Cohesin depletion decreases the levels of transcriptionally engaged Pol II at the promoters of most genes that don't bind cohesin, suggesting that cohesin controls expression of one or more broadly acting general transcription factors PMID: 23555293
8. Hsromega-n transcripts are essential for thermotolerance and remobilization of hnRNPs, HP1 and RNA polymerase II during recovery from heat shock. PMID: 21913129
9. analysis of the interactions between DSIF (DRB sensitivity inducing factor), NELF (negative elongation factor), and the Drosophila RNA polymerase II transcription elongation complex PMID: 20534440
10. resplicing of the Hox gene Ultrabithorax is stimulated in Drosophila embryos mutant for C4 pol II which demonstrates the transcriptional control of alternative splicing on an endogenous gene PMID: 14536091
11. RNA polymerase II act as dominant modifiers of the derepression phenotypes of the Sex combs reduced (Scr) and Ultrabithorax (Ubx) genes. PMID: 15354295
