• Histone variant innovation in a rapidly evolving chordate lineage 

      Moosmann, Alexandra; Campsteijn, Coen; Jansen, Pascal W. T. C.; Nasrallah, Carole; Raasholm, Martina; Stunnenberg, Henk G; Thompson, Eric M. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-07-15)
      Background: Histone variants alter the composition of nucleosomes and play crucial roles in transcription, chromosome segregation, DNA repair, and sperm compaction. Modification of metazoan histone variant lineages occurs ...
    • Trans-splicing of mRNAs links gene transcription to translational control regulated by mTOR 

      Danks, Gemma Barbara; Galbiati, Heloisa; Raasholm, Martina; Torres Cleuren, Yamila Nicole; Valen, Eivind; Navratilova, Pavla; Thompson, Eric (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Background: In phylogenetically diverse organisms, the 5′ ends of a subset of mRNAs are trans-spliced with a spliced leader (SL) RNA. The functions of SL trans-splicing, however, remain largely enigmatic. Results: We ...
