Authors Dombrowski M, Engeholm M, Dienemann C, Dodonova, S. Cramer P Journal Nature Structural & Molecular Biology Citation Nat Struct Mol Biol 29, 493–501 (2022). Abstract Throughout the genome, nucleosomes often form regular arrays that differ in nucleosome repeat length (NRL), occupancy of linker histone H1 and transcriptional activity. Here,

Authors Bhatta A, Dienemann C, Cramer P, Hillen HS Journal Nature Structural and Molecular Biology Citation Nat Struct Mol Biol (2021). Abstract Human mitochondrial transcripts contain messenger and ribosomal RNAs flanked by transfer RNAs (tRNAs), which are excised by mitochondrial RNase (mtRNase) P and Z to liberate all RNA species.

Authors Kabinger F, Stiller C, Schmitzová J, Dienemann C, Kokic G, Hillen HS, Höbartner C, Cramer P Journal Nature Structural & Molecular Biology Citation Nat Struct Mol Biol (2021). 2021 Aug 11. Abstract Molnupiravir is an orally available antiviral drug candidate currently in phase III trials for the treatment of

Authors Farnung L, Ochmann M, Engeholm M, Cramer P Journal Nature Structural & Molecular Biology Citation Nat Struct Mol Biol (2021). Abstract Efficient transcription of RNA polymerase II (Pol II) through nucleosomes requires the help of various factors. Here we show biochemically that Pol II transcription through a nucleosome is

Authors Vos SM, Farnung L, Linden A, Urlaub H, Cramer P Journal Nature Structural & Molecular Biology Citation Nat Struct Mol Biol. 2020. Abstract Transcription by RNA polymerase II (Pol II) is carried out by an elongation complex. We previously reported an activated porcine Pol II elongation complex, EC*, encompassing

Authors Wang H, Farnung L, Dienemann C, Cramer P Journal Nature Structural & Molecular Biology Citation Nat Struct Mol Biol. 2020 Jan;27(1):8-13. Abstract Recognition of histone-modified nucleosomes by specific reader domains underlies the regulation of chromatin-associated processes. Whereas structural studies revealed how reader domains bind modified histone peptides, it is
