Compositionally and functionally distinct RNA granules are found in the cytoplasm of somatic and germ cells in both higher and lower eukaryotes. Granule assembly occurs when compositionally ...

Researchers discovered how these "stress granules" interrupt molecule movement between a cell's nucleus and its cytoplasm.

These stress granules are believed to protect cells while ... are moved between the nucleus of the cell and its surrounding cytoplasm. "Our proposal, focusing on the breakdown of communication ...

Cytoplasmic RNA granules ((Stress Granules (SG) and P-bodies) function in translation regulation by sequestering translationally-silenced mRNAs but also play prominent roles in the integrated stress ...
