Although cohesin-sensitive, long-range enhancer activation is equivalent in nature to proximal activation. Cooperativity can arise from different levels of activation inputs operating on a non-linear response function. @eliasfriman.bsky.social @uoe-igc.bsky.social

UPF1 depletion inhibits nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) and stabilizes direct target
transcripts within hours. Boehm et al. use conditional protein degradation and advanced
transcriptomics to map t...
