Stress‐induced mRNP granules: Form and function of processing bodies and stress granules [PDF]
WIREs RNA, 2019 In response to stress, cells must quickly reprogram gene expression to adapt and survive. This is achieved in part by altering levels of mRNAs and their translation into proteins. Recently, the formation of two stress‐induced messenger ribonucleoprotein (mRNP) assemblies named stress granules and processing bodies has been postulated to directly impact

Development of a novel light-up probe for detection of G-quadruplexes in stress granules
Scientific Reports, 2022 G-quadruplexes (G4s) regulate various biological processes in cells. However, cellular imaging of dynamically forming G4s in biomolecular condensates using small molecules has been poorly investigated. Herein, we present a fluorescent light-up probe with

Plant stress granules and mRNA processing bodies are distinct from heat stress granules [PDF]
The Plant Journal, 2008 SummarySimilar to the situation in mammalian cells and yeast, messenger ribonucleo protein (mRNP) homeostasis in plant cells depends on rapid transitions between three functional states, i.e. translated mRNPs in polysomes, stored mRNPs and mRNPs under degradation.

Stress granules dynamics: benefits in cancer
BMB Reports, 2022 Stress granules (SGs) are stress-induced subcellular compartments, which carry out a particular function to cope with stress. These granules protect cells from stress-related damage and cell death through dynamic sequestration of numerous ribonucleoproteins (RNPs) and signaling proteins, thereby promoting cell survival under both physiological and ...

Recruitment of mRNAs to P granules by condensation with intrinsically-disordered proteins
eLife, 2020 RNA granules are protein/RNA condensates. How specific mRNAs are recruited to cytoplasmic RNA granules is not known. Here, we characterize the transcriptome and assembly of P granules, RNA granules in the C. elegans germ plasm.
