This paper identifies Rim4 as a meiotic thermal sensor that forms reversible condensates triggered by heat, promoting stress granule assembly and protecting meiotic processes from thermal stress.

This study identifies Pln1 as a mediator of lipid droplet-vacuole tethering during microlipophagy in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, revealing its role in LD degradation and survival under starvation.
