Dosage Compensation is required to correct for uneven gene dose between the sexes. We utilized global run-on sequencing (GRO-seq) to examine how Caenorhabditis elegans dosage compensation reduces transcription of X-linked genes. To facilitate these experiments, we required accurate 5M-bM-^@M-^Y-ends...

RNA polymerases are highly regulated molecular machines. We present a method (GRO-seq) that maps the position, amount, and orientation of transcriptionally-engaged RNA polymerases genome-wide. In this method, nuclear run-on RNAs are subjected to large-scale parallel sequencing and mapped to the gen...

Promoter-proximal pausing of RNA polymerase II (Pol II) is a widespread in higher eukaryotes. Previous studies have shown that GAF is enriched at paused genes, but the role of GAF in pausing has not been well characterized on a genome-wide level. To investigate the role of GAF in pausing, we RNAi-de...

We report the immediate effects of estrogen signaling on the transcriptome of breast cancer cells using Global Run-On and sequencing (GRO-seq). We found that estrogen signaling directly regulates a strikingly large fraction of the transcriptome in a rapid, robust, and unexpectedly transient manner. ...

Cohesin is a well-known mediator of sister chromatid cohesion, but it also influences gene expression and development. These non-canonical roles of cohesin are not well understood, but are vital: gene expression and development are altered by modest changes in cohesin function that do not disrupt ch...
ORGANISM(S): Drosophila melanogaster 
We used Global Run-on and Sequencing (GRO-seq) to measure the rate of transcription elongation by RNA polymerase II (Pol II) following gene activation. We observed that Pol II elongation rates can vary as much as 4-fold at different genomic loci and in response to two distinct cellular signaling pa...

MSL (Male-specific lethal) complex increases transcription on the single X chromosome of Drosophila males in order to equalize expression of X-linked genes between males (XY) and females (XX). The increase in transcript levels correlates with MSL- dependent acetylation of histone H4 at K16 within th...
