Abstract
Many active genes position near nuclear speckles. Kim et al. show that Hsp70 speckle association correlates with increased nascent transcripts. Live-cell imaging shows that increases in nascent Hsp70 transcripts strictly follow speckle association (∼0–2 min), suggesting that speckle association amplifies gene expression.
