Congratulations to Elvan, Martine, and colleagues on their paper, "Amyloid-like Self-Assembly of a Cellular Compartment," out now in Cell
Elvan Boke and colleagues propose that the Balbiani body, a non-membrane-bound compartment in vertebrate oocytes, is formed by amyloid-like assembly of proteins containing prion-like domains.
