New preprint from the lab! With @Brumbaugh_JB, we show that P-bodies sequester developmentally relevant RNAs to influence cell fate. miRNAs direct this conserved regulatory process, and manipulating it enhances totipotency and germ cell programming.

5/ Recent technological advancements have powered these studies, enabling answers to previously unanswerable questions (Fig. 4). Despite this progress, critical evaluation of the evidence concerning condensate properties is essential to understand their role in immune cell fate.

4/ Conversely, dysregulation of condensates has been linked to deleterious immune cell fates, including impaired function, autoimmunity, aging, and malignant transformation (Fig. 3).

3/ Recent studies have implicated condensates in the transcriptional and post-transcriptional processes that drive proper immune cell fates, from the level of hematopoietic stem cells to innate and adaptive immune cells (Fig. 2).

2/ Condensates are diverse, membraneless assemblies of nucleic acids and proteins (Fig. 1). They are thought to enable temporally precise control of gene expression by concentrating or segregating components of the gene regulatory machinery and their targets.

1/ Pleased to share our review, published today @NatRevImmunol, highlighting how biomolecular condensates enhance the precision and flexibility of gene regulatory networks that guide fate decisions during normal and pathological immune cell development.
