Ryuta's paper is out!

  • by Ben Montpetit

We are excited to see the tremendous efforts of Dr. Ryuta Asada published. The most significant piece of work to come from my group to date, he demonstrates compositional heterogeneity of single mRNPs and plasticity across different growth conditions, defines the major co-occupants of nuclear mRNPs, and shows a function for Yra1 in nuclear mRNP packaging. Data that provides a quantitative framework for gene- and condition-dependent RBP occupancy and stoichiometry in individual nuclear mRNPs.
