: When the cell is stressed, unfolded RNA molecules bind to G3BP, causing it to expand and cluster together. This leads to the formation of liquid-like droplets (condensates) that sequester mRNA. Usage in the Study

The video visualizes the cellular processes of . Stress granules are "membraneless organelles" that form when a cell is under stress, such as oxidative stress or heat. Key scientific takeaways associated with this file include: g8046.mp4

, such as droplets fusing together or recovering after being bleached by a laser (FRAP). : When the cell is stressed, unfolded RNA

, showing purified G3BP and RNA forming droplets in a controlled laboratory setting. : When the cell is stressed

: Under normal conditions, G3BP is in a compact, "auto-inhibited" state.
