Human Gene Set: GOCC_RIBONUCLEOPROTEIN_GRANULE

For the Mouse gene set with the same name, see GOCC_RIBONUCLEOPROTEIN_GRANULE

Standard name GOCC_RIBONUCLEOPROTEIN_GRANULE
Systematic name M17325
Brief description A non-membranous macromolecular complex containing proteins and translationally silenced mRNAs. RNA granules contain proteins that control the localization, stability, and translation of their RNA cargo. Different types of RNA granules (RGs) exist, depending on the cell type and cellular conditions. [GOC:go_curators, GOC:sp, PMID:16520386, PMID:20368989, PMID:21436445]
