The Bromodomain and Extra-Terminal Domain (BET) family of proteins is characterized by the presence of two tandem bromodomains and an extra-terminal domain. The mammalian …
Infection with Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) can lead to Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC), a lethal form of skin cancer. However, the skin cell type productively infected by MCPyV …

Transcription is a highly dynamic process that generates single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) in the genome as 'transcription bubbles'. Here we describe a kethoxal-assisted single-stranded …
BET proteins commonly activate cellular gene expression, yet inhibiting their recruitment paradoxically reactivates latent HIV-1 transcription. Here we identify the short isoform of BET …
