Regulation of transcription termination by FUS and TDP-43

Dorothy Yanling Zhao, Syed Nabeel‐Shah, Zuyao Ni, Shuye Pu, Guoqing Zhong, Frank W. Schmitges, Ulrich Braunschweig, Benjamin J. Blencowe, Jack F. Greenblatt

This study shows that TDP-43 and FUS are recruited by the R1810me2s-SMN pathway, and their defects affect RNAPII termination and R-loop accumulation, contributing to neurodegenerative disorders.

Recruitment of the m6A/Am demethylase FTO to target RNAs by the telomeric zinc finger protein ZBTB48

Syed Nabeel‐Shah, Shuye Pu, Giovanni L. Burke, Nujhat Ahmed, Ulrich Braunschweig, Shaghayegh Farhangmehr, Hyunmin Lee, Mingkun Wu, Zuyao Ni, Hua Tang, Guoqing Zhong, Edyta Marcon, Zhaolei Zhang, Benjamin J. Blencowe, Jack F. Greenblatt

This study identifies ZBTB48 as a regulator of FTO's substrate selectivity by facilitating its binding to m6A/m6Am-containing RNAs, affecting RNA decay and cancer cell growth.

Crosstalk between RNA Pol II C-Terminal Domain Acetylation and Phosphorylation via RPRD Proteins

Ibraheem Ali, Diego Garrido Ruiz, Zuyao Ni, Jeffrey R. Johnson, Heng Zhang, Pao-Chen Li, Mir Mubashir Khalid, Ryan J. Conrad, Xinghua Guo, Jinrong Min, Jack Greenblatt, Matthew P. Jacobson, Nevan J. Krogan, Mélanie Ott

The paper investigates how acetylation and phosphorylation of RNA polymerase II CTD interact through RPRD proteins, showing acetylation regulates phosphorylation and vice versa.
