Project description:We used RNA Pol II-CTD occupancy assay to identify mRNA isoform switch in mutant animals compared to wild type animals. Examination of RNA Pol II-CTD Ser5P recognized by 4H8 in wild type, sydn-1(0), ssup-72(0) and ssup-72(0);sydn-1(0)
Project description:To investigate changes in RNAPII distribution in response to SF3B1 mutations, we peformed mNET-seq using antibody against either pan Pol II CTD or Ser2P Pol II CTD in K562 cells (wild type and SF3B1K700E mutant) at 4 days after mutant allele expression We then performed coverage plot analysis using data obtained from mNET-seq to investigate RNAPII distribution changes. Drosophila spike-in was included for the pan-Pol II CTD studies.
Project description:The carboxyl-terminal domain (CTD) of the largest subunit of RNA polymerase II (Pol II) orchestrates dynamic recruitment of specific cellular machines during different stages of transcription. Signature phosphorylation patterns of Y1S2P3T4S5P6S7 heptapeptide repeats of the CTD engage specific “readers.” While phospho-Ser5 and phospho-Ser2 marks are ubiquitous, phospho-Thr4 is reported to only impact specific genes. Here, we investigate the genome-wide occupancy of Pol II, phospho-Thr4, and key reader Rtt103 in WT and CTD-mutant strains of S. cerevisiae.
