Alterations in RNA Polymerase II kinetics can affect key co-transcriptional processes such as normal splicing and transcript elongation and can influence nonsense mediated decay (Fong et al., 2014; Jonkers and Lis, 2015). Specific types of DNA damage can variably influence RNA Pol II activity. Thus, we performed RNA Pol ll pSer5 ChIP-seq to investigate how the chronic DNA damage can affect to RNA Pol ll activity in the cerebellum tissues. Overall design: Chip- sequencing of the cerebellum looking at RNA polymerase II Serine 5 in ATM APTX null and associated control brains.
