α-proteobacterial RNA degradosomes assemble liquid-liquid phase separated RNP bodies

Nadra Al-Husini, Dylan T. Tomares, Obaidah Bitar, W. Seth Childers, Jared M. Schrader

This study identifies RNase E in Caulobacter crescentus as forming liquid-liquid phase separated RNP bodies, similar to eukaryotic P-bodies, which enhance stress response and mRNA degradation.
