Temporal gating dictates stress-induced transcript export from the nucleus

Noah S. Helton, Benjamin J. T. Dodd, Stephanie L. Moon

The paper shows that transcription timing, not sequence features, determines nuclear export of stress-induced mRNAs in human cells.

ASPL-driven subunit exchange remodels VCP/p97 hexamers and is impaired by a multisystem proteinopathy mutation

Jingxuan Tang, Laxmikanta Khamari, Benjamin J. T. Dodd, Guoming Gao, Liuhan Dai, Stephanie L. Moon, Nils G. Walter

The paper quantifies VCP hexamer assembly and subunit exchange dynamics, showing that the R155H mutation impairs ASPL-mediated exchange, potentially stabilizing mutant VCP in assemblies.

tRNA synthetase activity is required for stress granule and P-body assembly

Max Baymiller, Noah S. Helton, Benjamin J. T. Dodd, Stephanie L. Moon

This study shows tRNA synthetase activity is required for ribosome runoff during stress to drive RNP granule assembly, but not for stress granule or P-body formation.
