Unlocking the cell's 'gatekeeper': Researchers discover critical RNA quality-control factor, LENG8

How do cells ensure that the "blueprints" of genetic information-RNA are accurate and intact before they are exported from the nucleus to the cytoplasm for protein production? A study led by Professor Yongsheng Shi's team at the University of California, Irvine, published in the journal Molecular Cell, has unveiled a previously undefined key mechanism within the cell: the LENG8 protein.
