hnRNP A1: The nuclear DJ fine-tuning antiviral immunity
In the cell’s nuclear control room, RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are the DJs of gene expression. In a new study, Deshaies et al. (1) explore two isoforms of hnRNP A1 (A1 and A1B members of the hnRNP family) involved in RNA splicing, transport, and metabolism. While both isoforms are structurally similar and co-expressed across tissues, they […]
