Neurospora crassa Regulator
※ Regulator introduction The LLPS of scaffold proteins and the stability of MLOs can be modulated by PTMs and other proteins (1-4). For example, arginine methylation of FUS by PRMT1 or PRMT8 reduces the LLPS of FUS, and both PRMTs were classified as PTM regulators. Also, Buchan et al. conducted a microscopy-based genetic screen of >4000 gene deletions in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and identified 125 genes to be involved in regulating the stability and formation of P-bodies and/or stress granules (5). None of these proteins have been characterized to undergo LLPS, and here we classified all the 125 proteins as MLO regulators. References
