What could be possible cellular/biological reason(s) for change in transcripts/transcriptome not being consistent with changes in respective proteins/proteome?
What advantage would it give a biosystem to make RNA if not to be translated?

Doing good science is 90% finding a science buddy to constantly talk to about the project.

#NatureReviewsCancer🚨

The #CancerDepMap is an invaluable, publicly available resource for systemically identifying cancer vulnerabilities. In this #Perspective, Bill Hahn & team (@broadinstitute.org) review its impact, uses, limitations & efforts to improve + expand its use.

Stephen Jay Gould talks in his book Bully for Brontosaurus about non-adaptive mechanism of evolution in NZ kiwis and their eggs.
How far have come..? in knowing of phenotypes which have come off just as by-the-way or as compensatory needs?.

Biomolecular condensates are frequently discussed in the context of different cellular processes.

This Review is dedicated to their function in the regulation of transcription. @bsabari.bsky.social et al. discuss condensate organisation and their impact on gene activation in development & disease.
I am excited to share our review published online with Nature Reviews MCB. Pilong Li, Gaofeng Pei, Heankel Lyons, and I review the current literature on the regulation of transcription by condensates, large length scale assemblies of complexes (Figure 1).

Naïve question: When RNA Polymerase finishes transcription and detaches from DNA, does it do so as an intact complex, or does it have to split apart to release the DNA strand it's been encircling?
