Ornithorhynchus anatinus Mitochondrial RNA granule
※ Mitochondrial RNA granule 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). Mitochondrial RNA granules is a kind of these bodies of spherical shape that located in mitochondria with mitochondrial mRNAs and mitochondrial ribosomes components and it’s proved to be related to the posttranscriptional RNA processing and biogenesis of mitochondrial ribosomes (1).
