The Stress Granule Transcriptome Reveals Principles of mRNA Accumulation in Stress Granules [PDF]
Stress granules are mRNA-protein assemblies formed from nontranslating mRNAs. Stress granules are important in the stress response and may contribute to some degenerative diseases. Here, we describe the stress granule transcriptome of yeast and mammalian cells through RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis of purified stress granule cores and single ...

The prion-like protein kinase Sky1 is required for efficient stress granule disassembly
The factors regulating stress granule dissolution are not fully understood. Here, the authors identify Sky1 as a stress granule component in yeast, and show that Sky1 kinase activity is required for timely stress granule disassembly during stress ...

Stress Granule Assembly Disrupts Nucleocytoplasmic Transport [PDF]
Defects in nucleocytoplasmic transport have been identified as a key pathogenic event in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) mediated by a GGGGCC hexanucleotide repeat expansion in C9ORF72, the most common genetic cause of ALS/FTD.

RNA self-assembly contributes to stress granule formation and defining the stress granule transcriptome [PDF]
Significance Stress granules, which are ubiquitous, non–membrane-bound assemblies of protein and RNA, form when translation initiation is inhibited, contribute to the regulation of gene expression, and are implicated in the pathologies of cancer and neurodegenerative disease. Understanding the mechanisms of stress

mRNPs meet stress granules [PDF]
Stress granules are cytoplasmic structures that form in response to a variety of cellular stresses. They contain mRNAs and many proteins including numerous types of RNA‐binding proteins, and have been studied in connection to major cellular events such as protein synthesis as well as disease. Despite the well‐known fact that stress granules encapsulate

Stress granules and neurodegeneration [PDF]
Recent advances suggest that the response of RNA metabolism to stress has an important role in the pathophysiology of neurodegenerative diseases, particularly amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, frontotemporal dementias and Alzheimer disease. RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) control the utilization of mRNA during stress, in part through the formation of ...

Cell growth and proliferation are fundamental processes in living organisms and are dynamically controlled by environmental cues. TOR complex 1 (TORC1) is a central protein kinase involved in the regulation of cell growth in response to a wide variety of cellular states and is the target of the immunosuppressant and anticancer drug rapamycin.

Differential effect of SARS-CoV-2 infection on stress granule formation in Vero and Calu-3 cells
Stress granule formation is induced by numerous environmental stressors, including sodium arsenite treatment and viral infection. Accordingly, stress granules can inhibit viral propagation and function as part of the antiviral host response to numerous ...

Impact of Weather Conditions and Farming Systems on Size Distribution of Starch Granules and Flour Yield of Winter Wheat [PDF]
The size distribution of wheat-grain starch granules has an impact on the yield of finne flour. The aim of the study was to compare the impact of conventional (mineral fertilizers, pesticides) and organic farming treatments (cover crops, composted cattle

Lysine acetyltransferase NuA4 and acetyl-CoA regulate glucose-deprived stress granule formation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. [PDF]
Eukaryotic cells form stress granules under a variety of stresses, however the signaling pathways regulating their formation remain largely unknown. We have determined that the Saccharomyces cerevisiae lysine acetyltransferase complex NuA4 is required ...
