Altered rRNA processing disrupts nuclear RNA homeostasis via competition for the poly (A)-binding protein Nab2

LC Aguilar, B Paul, T Reiter, L Gendron… - Nucleic acids …, 2020 - academic.oup.com
RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are key mediators of RNA metabolism. Whereas some RBPs
exhibit narrow transcript specificity, others function broadly across both coding and non …

RNA Polymerase II CTD phosphatase Rtr1 fine-tunes transcription termination

JF Victorino, MJ Fox, WR Smith-Kinnaman… - PLoS …, 2020 - journals.plos.org
RNA Polymerase II (RNAPII) transcription termination is regulated by the phosphorylation
