RNA polymerase II (Pol II) generally pauses at certain positions along gene bodies, thereby interrupting the transcription elongation process, which is often coupled with various important biological functions, such as precursor mRNA splicing and gen...
Rates of transcription elongation vary within and across eukaryotic gene bodies. Here, we introduce new methods for predicting elongation rates from nascent RNA sequencing data. First, we devise a probabilistic model that predicts nucleotide-specific...
