We just posted V2 of our @biorxivpreprint! mRNA condensation fluidizes the cytoplasm More beautiful figures, and improved text. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

mRNA condensation fluidizes the cytoplasm

The intracellular environment is packed with macromolecules of mesoscale size, and this crowded milieu significantly influences cell physiology. When exposed to stress, mRNAs released after transla...

New @bioRxiv preprint! tinyurl.com/mr4yxsxb @Ying_Xie_ found that polysome collapse & mRNA condensation fluidizes the cytoplasm. This helps assembly of another membraneless stress organelle: Q-bodies! P-bodies and SGs tune the physical properties of the cytoplasm! RT plz!

#SciTwitter when I put together a scientific paper I like to storyboard it (figures and legends mostly, maybe a bit more methods detail where needed to help me follow the logic). Are there good software tools to do this? Bonus points for free or open tools!

Replying to @NikoMcCarty
This paper had a big impact on me. I think what was powerful was to be able to SEE the oscillation on my computer screen. It brought home the idea that biology is a REAL THING that we can engineer. I'm getting a lot of Synbio nostalgia right now. Please keep em coming.
