Multipotent hematopoietic cells susceptible to alternative double-strand break repair pathways that promote genome rearrangements.

abstract：:Ribosomal protein synthesis ceases upon maturation of Xenopus oocytes. We find that this cessation results from the dissociation of ribosomal protein mRNAs from polysomes and is accompanied by the deadenylation of these transcripts. A synthetic mRNA encoding ribosomal protein L1, microinjected into stage VI oocytes, i...
