RPS28B mRNA acts as a scaffold promoting cis-translational interaction of proteins driving P-body assembly

A broader role for mRNA 3'UTRs in establishing protein interactions?

Very happy to announce a first author paper for Nikita in the journal Nucleic Acids Research. We describe an interesting new mechanism by which P-bodies in yeast are scaffolded by an mRNA 3’UTR via a “cis-translation” dependent mechanism. Congrats Nikita!
