What is the function of the RNAPII-interacting SCAF proteins? In our latest work, led by Smaragda Kompocholi, we show that SCAF1 shapes mRNA isoform expression during neuronal differentiation 🧬 🧠 Loss of SCAF1 → shorter transcripts 📄 Interested in the full story? www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

A chance to join Fena’s group @fenaochs.bsky.social @cgen2025.bsky.social! Great lab and center - plus you will become our neighbour😉

What happens to transcription upon oxidative DNA damage? 🧬💥 RNAPII halts instantly within genes ⛔️ and even more surprisingly: It restarts from where it stopped without leaving the DNA template 🚦 👀📄 How does this happen? Find out in our new preprint👇 www.biorxiv.org/cgi/content/...

Interested in measuring RNAPII elongation rates? We developed DRB/TTchem-seq2 to directly measure rates across 3,000+ genes 🧬 genome.cshlp.org/content/earl... This fantastic work led by Haiyue Liu reveals gene and intra-genic variation, links to histone marks & elongation factors Details below! 👇

Such a beautiful example of how tight control of transcriptional activity is achieved and even more important: plays a crucial developmental role. Congratulations @jzylicz.bsky.social and team!

❗️One more week to apply for a PhD position in our group👇

Another chance to join our group! Center for Gene Expression has 2 or more postdoc positions @ucph.bsky.social in wonderful Copenhagen. Want to join our team to work on transcriptional regulation? More information at: gregersenlab.com Deadline March 18. Apply here: jobportal.ku.dk/phd/?show=16...

We are recruiting! Center for Gene Expression has 2 or more open positions for PhDs @ucph.bsky.social. Come join our team to work on RNAPII and transcriptional regulation (gregersenlab.com). It's a wonderful city and amazing research environment. Deadline March 6. jobportal.ku.dk/phd/?show=16...

Postdoc positions on nuclear RNA biology available in the Heick Jensen lab. Come join us in tiny Denmark. Interested? - then follow this link: mbg.au.dk/aktuelt/ledi...

We're hiring a motivated PhD student! Join reNEW @ucph.bsky.social & @nucleardn.bsky.social to study how metabolism regulates chromatin & stem cell fate thanks to generous Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellowship. Remember to apply both at shorturl.at/yf7Qq & nuclear-dn.eu.

New postdoc opportunity in the THJ lab! Please share to anyone interested in nuclear RNA biology @molbiolau.bsky.social mbg.au.dk/en/news-and-...

Now official: We have another opening for a fully funded #PhDposition in the Beusch lab (www.beuschlab.org) at @uniwuerzburg.bsky.social! More details here: tinyurl.com/947xcw85 If you or someone you know is curious about #splicing please apply or contact me for more information! #RNAsky #RNAbiology
