L Davidson, R Stebbins - 2011 - Springer
This book examines, from the angles of environmental sustainability and leisure consumption,
a modern leisure phenomenon which we call nature challenge activity (NCA), a distinctive …

Capital city museums and tourism flows: An empirical study of the museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa

S Carey, L Davidson, M Sahli - International Journal of Tourism …, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
This study uses time series analysis to explore the extent to which the opening of the Museum

the singing of musically untrained adults, and the perceptual changes in tonal relationships …

[HTML][HTML] 3′ end formation of pre-mRNA and phosphorylation of Ser2 on the RNA polymerase II CTD are reciprocally coupled in human cells

L Davidson, L Muniz, S West - Genes & development, 2014 - genesdev.cshlp.org
3′ end formation of pre-mRNAs is coupled to their transcription via the C-terminal domain (CTD)
of RNA polymerase II (Pol II). Nearly all protein-coding transcripts are matured by …

Xrn2 accelerates termination by RNA polymerase II, which is underpinned by CPSF73 activity

JD Eaton, L Davidson, DLV Bauer… - Genes & …, 2018 - genesdev.cshlp.org
Termination is a ubiquitous phase in every transcription cycle but is incompletely

A unified allosteric/torpedo mechanism for transcriptional termination on human protein-coding genes

JD Eaton, L Francis, L Davidson… - Genes & …, 2020 - genesdev.cshlp.org
The allosteric and torpedo models have been used for 30 yr to explain how transcription
terminates on protein-coding genes. The former invokes termination via conformational …

Co‐transcriptional degradation of aberrant pre‐mRNA by Xrn2

L Davidson, A Kerr, S West - The EMBO journal, 2012 - embopress.org
Eukaryotic protein‐coding genes are transcribed as pre‐mRNAs that are matured by capping,
splicing and cleavage and polyadenylation. Although human pre‐mRNAs can be long …

[PDF][PDF] A restrictor complex of ZC3H4, WDR82, and ARS2 integrates with PNUTS to control unproductive transcription

C Estell, L Davidson, JD Eaton, H Kimura, VAM Gold… - Molecular cell, 2023 - cell.com
The transcriptional termination of unstable non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) is poorly understood
compared to coding transcripts. We recently identified ZC3H4-WDR82 ("restrictor") as …
