GLOBAL ANALYSIS OF PROTRUSION-TRANCSRIPTOMES IDENTIFIES DISTINCT CATEGORIES OF LOCALIZED RNAS IN NON-NEURONAL CELLS

Briana Hojo BS, Shikha Kumari, Dominic Milla, Victoria Vang, Megan L. Norris

The paper develops a fractionation workflow to study RNA localization in non-neuronal cells and identifies six categories of protrusion-localized RNAs, including long non-coding RNAs and pseudogenes.

Localization of Kif1c mRNA to cell protrusions dictates binding partner specificity of the encoded protein

Megan L. Norris, Joshua T. Mendell

The paper shows that Kif1c mRNA localization to cell protrusions is required for directed cell migration and affects the specificity of KIF1C protein interactions.
