Establishment of a Human RNA Pol II Pausing System and the Identification of O-GlcNAc Cycling Regulating Pol II Pausing and Elongation

B. A. Lewis, D. Levens

The paper establishes a human cell-free transcription system to study RNA polymerase II pausing and identifies O-GlcNAc cycling as a regulator of pausing and elongation.

Single-molecule visualization of the effects of ionic strength and crowding on structure-mediated interactions in supercoiled DNA molecules

S. Scott, C. Shaheen, B. McGuinness, K. Metera, F. Kouzine, D. Levens, C. J. Benham, S. Leslie

The paper uses single-molecule CLiC microscopy to study how ionic strength and crowding affect DNA unwinding and probe binding in supercoiled DNA molecules.

Visualizing structure-mediated interactions in supercoiled DNA molecules

S. Scott, Z. M. Xu, F. Kouzine, D. J. Berard, C. Shaheen, B. Gravel, L. Saunders, A. Hofkirchner, C. Leroux, J. Laurin, D. Levens, C. J. Benham, S. R. Leslie

The paper visualizes how DNA supercoiling and temperature affect probe binding to an unwinding site using CLiC imaging, showing increased binding with higher temperature and negative supercoiling.
