Ribosome reactivates transcription by physically pushing RNA polymerase out of transcription arrest.

abstract：:Patients with hematological malignancies can be successfully treated with HLA-matched T cell-depleted allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT) and subsequent donor lymphocyte infusions (DLIs). The efficacy of DLI is mediated by donor T cells recognizing minor histocompatibility antigens (mHags) on malignant reci...
