Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) can be maintained in the naïve state through inhibition of Mek1/2 and Gsk3 (2i). A relevant effect of 2i is the inhibition of Cdk8/19, which are negative regulators of the Mediator complex, responsible for the activity of enhancers. Inhibition of Cdk8/19 (Cdk8/19i) stimul...

Gene regulation by cytokine-activated STAT transcription factors requires serine phosphorylation within the transactivation domain (TAD). STAT1 and STAT3 TAD phosphorylation was reported to occur upon promoter binding by an unknown kinase. Here we show that the Mediator CDK8 module phosphorylates S7...

There is an unmet need for chemical tools to explore the role of the Mediator complex in human pathologies ranging from cancer to cardiovascular disease. Here we determine that CCT251545 a WNT-pathway inhibitor discovered by cell-based screening is a potent and selective chemical probe for the Medi...

We use biochemically reconstituted transcription initiation components including the Mediator core and Cdk8 kinase modules (CKM) to investigate the function of the CKM in regulating the Mediator-RNA polymerase II interaction in a highly purified system. We use cross-linking coupled to mass spectrome...

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with leukemic stem cell (LSC) characteristics represents a therapeutic challenge due to inherent resistance to differentiation. CDK8, a kinase component of the Mediator complex, has emerged as a regulator of oncogenic transcription, yet its role in LSC maintenance and po...

Mitotic entry is accompanyed by the expression of a cluster of so called mitotic genes, whose activation is critical for mitosis in human and yeast cells. We found a link between the transcription machinery and cell cycle control network at mitosis in fission yeast, involving the Cdk8 kinase depende...
