Linking TDP-43-regulated paraspeckle condensation to neuroprotectionNature Cell Biology - Paraspeckle condensates are membraneless nuclear organelles linked to stress responses and disease states. We demonstrate that paraspeckle assembly is tightly controlled by...rdcu.beNature Cell Biology🍰Read also the Research Briefing: 👉https://rdcu.be/fdccN bit.ly/4cG5yv3
Congrats to @tslab.bsky.social and the rest of the team on their paper!
Nature Cell Biology☕Hodgson, Huang, Lang et al. show that TDP-43 limits ribonucleoprotein particle condensation into paraspeckles in a concentration- and polymerization-dependent manner. They also link paraspeckle condensation to stress response and neuroprotection. bit.ly/3QBQmXa
