Abstract High-resolution mapping of active RNA polymerase II transcription initiation provides a dynamic view of gene expression and reveals the entire spectrum of RNA transcripts—from stable mRNAs to transient enhancer RNAs—which is critical for understanding gene regulation, deciphering transcriptional programs and defining regulatory element function. Here we present a detailed protocol for capped small RNA sequencing (csRNA-seq).

The CMAOntario Awards and Festival will hit the Textile Building and The Music Hall this weekend, marking the third time in five years the city has played host to the event. Hamilton’s The Redhill Valleys, Mackenzie Leigh Meyer and KX94.7, along with Josh Ross from Burlington, are all up for awards. Pull on your cowboy boots and dust off those Stetsons, Hamilton, the city is hosting the Country Music Association of Ontario (CMAOntario) Awards and Festival this weekend.

Ignition of non-equilibrium methane dielectric barrier discharges in a multiphase plasma–liquid microfluidic device Atmospheric pressure plasma conversion of methane is usually addressed in gas-only systems, such as dry reforming of methane. Introducing a liquid in such a system enables direct utilization of plasma-produced radicals, such as methyl (CH3), as a reactant in the liquid. Methylation of organic liquids by this technique can lead to the sustainable production of high-value products.
