eIF4E assembly into <i>C. elegans</i> germ granules is essential for its repressive function

2025-09-25

Abstract excerpt

Metazoan germ cells form intracellular germ granules, cytoplasmic RNA-protein condensates that contain a variety of RNAs and proteins essential for germline identity, maintenance, and fertility. P granules are a type of C. elegans germ granule proposed to be sites of mRNA repression. Proper P granule assembly is dependent on PGL-1 and its granule-forming protein relatives. Numerous RNA-binding proteins localize t...
