Xenopus tropicalis      DDX1 body


※ DDX1 body introduction

    Eukaryotic cells are inhomogeneously crowded with biological macromolecules (proteins and nucleic acids) and often contain numerous cellular bodies, including proteinaceous membrane-less organelles (PMLOs), They are formed as a result of highly regulated and reversible liquid-liquid demixing phase separation and represent condensed liquid droplets, which are invariantly enriched in intrinsically disordered proteins (1), DDX1 bodies is a kind of these bodies located in nucleus, It is fluid and related to the pre-mRNA processing (1).
