And another interesting paper from Bonasio lab @upenn.edu www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... "Pseudouridine selects RNAs for extracellular transport" noting among other things "..that MYL6 is a pU-binding protein required for secretion of RNAs." notable MYL6 is found in the Kossiakoff work as a csRBP!
Pseudouridine selects RNAs for extracellular transport
RNAs move through the extracellular space to transmit information between cells, including mammalian neurons, yet how specific RNAs are channeled into these extracellular routes is unknown. Using geno...
