The p97 adaptor p47/NSFL1C is necessary for stress granule dissolution after heat stress
Abstract Stress granules form in response to diverse cellular perturbations to sequester translation components until the stress is resolved. Stress granules are composed of RNA–protein assemblies in membrane-delimited structures and must be rapidly disassembled to release compon...
