Caenorhabditis elegans      Neuronal granule


※ Neuronal granule introduction

    Neuronal granules are also referred to as neuronal transport granules, RNA-transporting granules, neuronal RNA granules, dendritic P-body like structures (dlP-bodies), FMRP granules and Staufen granules(1,2). They are broadly identified by the presence of two highly conserved proteins: Staufen, a double-stranded RNA-binding protein and FMRP. As a kind of cytoplasmic RNP bodies located in Cytoplasm of neurons, neuronal transport RNPs have highly specialized functions and have been shown to interact or co-localize with components of GW/P bodies (1), it's microtubule-dependent and contain Silenced mRNAs and ribosomes components. Neuronal RNA bodies is of spherical shape with fluid characteristics, proved to be associated with rotein synthesis in response to exogenous stimuli (2).
