Transcriptome-wide mRNP condensation precedes stress granuleformation and excludes new mRNAs

Hendrik Glauninger, Jared A.M. Bard, Caitlin J Wong Hickernell…·David Allan Drummond

The paper shows that mRNAs condense broadly in yeast under stress, independent of length, and new transcripts escape this condensation for selective translation.
