Phase separation directs ubiquitination of gene body nucleosomes
The conserved yeast E3 ligase Bre1 and its partner E2 Rad6 monoubiquitinate histone H2B across gene bodies during the transcription cycle. While processive ubiquitination might in principle arise from Bre1/Rad6 traveling with RNA polymerase II, we provide a different explanation. Here we implicate liquid-liquid phase separation as the underlying mechanism. Biochemical reconstitution shows that Bre1 binds the scaffold protein Lge1, whose intrinsically disordered region phase separates via dynamic...

metadata only · no data-level QC for this typeStandardized, field-standard QC computed by touching the data — every metric states how it was obtained
No quantitative QC rubric exists for this data type yet, so it is deliberately left unscored — this is an honest "not applicable", not a poor rating.
