Cdk9, Spt5 and histone H2B mono-ubiquitylation cooperate to ensure antisense suppression by the Clr6-CII/Rpd3S HDAC complex
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Cyclin-dependent kinase 9 (Cdk9) and histone H2B monoubiquitylation (H2Bub1) are both implicated in elongation by RNA polymerase II (RNAPII). In fission yeast, Cdk9 and H2Bub1 regulate each other through a feedback loop involving phosphorylation of the elongation factor Spt5. Conversely, genetic interactions suggest opposing functions of H2Bub1 and Cdk9 through an Spt5-independent pathway. To understand these interactions, we performed RNA-seq analysis after H2Bub1 loss, Cdk9 inhibition, or both. Either Cdk9 inhibition or H2Bub1 loss increased levels of antisense transcription initiating within coding regions of distinct subsets of genes; ablation of both pathways led to antisense derepression affecting over half the genome. Cdk9 and H2Bub1 cooperate to suppress antisense transcription by promoting function of the Clr6-CII histone deacetylase (HDAC) complex. H2Bub1 plays a second role, in opposition to Clr6-CII, to promote sense transcription in subtelomeric regions. Therefore, functional genomics revealed both collaborative and antagonistic functions of H2Bub1 and Cdk9.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
