  • EXOSC9-mediated stress resistance and P-body formation were found to depend on the intact RNA-binding motif of this protein. (bvsalud.org)
  • Finally, EXOSC9 also promoted xenografted tumor growth of MDA-MB-231 cells in an intact RNA-binding motif-dependent manner. (bvsalud.org)
  • For many regions of the genome, we have detected multiple overlapping transcripts including both small, gene-sized RNAs and large transcripts covering entire gene clusters. (ncsu.edu)
