Interesting paper from Tatjana Trcek lab.
She & her team looked at fly #GermGranules nucleation and, well... the title says it all:

"Proteins rather than mRNAs regulate nucleation and persistence of Oskar germ granules in Drosophila "

#mRNA #mRNALocalization #Drosophila #LLPS

It is also her 1st paper as #NewPI so congrats are in order.

📣 I wrote a new post in my blog:
"Fixation of cells for imaging affects phase separation".

#tories cannot get their head round #keynsian exonomics - it cuts across too many of their prejudices.

The #rich buying yachts in tax havens using untaxed income held in #scottish #LLPs & the like are literally siphoning wealth out of the #uk - all the while claiming they are #wealthCreators ......

Unfortunately the CAG repeat GRC coincides with another great meeting: The FASEB Protein Aggregation Conference: Exploring Rugged Landscapes. #amyloid #llps and more! this year in Malahide, Ireland Jun 11-15 https://web.cvent.com/event/720adec4-52f0-4173-ba93-8681b42780eb/summary. #PACSRC
