Tunable kinetic destabilization governs RNA polymerase passage through a DNA-bound transcription factor

Noam Nago, Sergei Rudnizky, Nir Strugo, Moshe Goldsmith, Carmit Burstein, Philippa Melamed, Ariel Kaplan

The paper shows DNA-bound Egr-1 delays RNA polymerase elongation through kinetic destabilization, with CpG methylation reducing this delay.

The GT1 domain of RNase J ensures RNA quality control through dsRNA binding in Arabidopsis plastids

Kévin Baudry, Sébastien Skiada, Carmit Burstein, Varda Liveanu, Arnaud Liehrmann, Maddie Ceminsky, Oded Kleifeld, Étienne Delannoy, Alexandra Launay‐Avon, Benoît Castandet, Gadi Schuster, David B. Stern

This study investigates the role of the GT1 domain in Arabidopsis RNase J by showing it binds dsRNA and DNA, affects enzyme solubility, and is critical for dsRNA removal in plastids.

Intrinsically disordered regions facilitate Msn2 target search to drive promoter selectivity

Nir Strugo, Carmit Burstein, Sk Saddam Hossain, Noam Nago, Moshe Goldsmith, Hadeel Khamis, Ariel Kaplan

This study shows that intrinsically disordered regions in Msn2 enhance DNA binding and promoter selectivity through non-specific association and one-dimensional diffusion.
