Struggle for survival: new insights into NELF condensation for adaptive transcriptional reprogramming

Weifan Xu et al. Mol Cell. .
Free article

Abstract

In this issue of Molecular Cell, Rawat et al. (2021) characterize novel stress-induced condensates of the negative elongation factor (NELF) as the nuclear counterparts of cytosolic stress granules. This provides a new perspective on transcription repression orchestrated by phase separation.
