Xist RNA binds select autosomal genes and depends on Repeat B to regulate their expression

Shengze Yao, Yesu Jeon, Barry Kesner, Jeannie T. Lee

This study shows Xist RNA binds ~100 autosomal genes beyond the inactive X chromosome, with Repeat B essential for its function, and identifies a small molecule inhibitor that disrupts this activity.

Dosage compensation of transposable elements in mammals

Chunyao Wei, Barry Kesner, Uri Weissbein, Peera Wasserzug‐Pash, Priyojit Das, Jeannie T. Lee

The paper investigates whether transposable elements (TEs) on the X chromosome undergo XCI or Xa-hyperactivation, finding TEs are only silenced during XCI and not activated during Xa-hyperactivation.

Re-analysis of CLAP data affirms PRC2 as an RNA binding protein

YongWoo Lee, Priyojit Das, Barry Kesner, Michael Rosenberg, Roy Blum, Jeannie T. Lee

This paper re-analyzes CLAP data and finds PRC2 is an RNA binding protein, contradicting previous conclusions due to issues in the original analysis pipeline.
