Abstract / Description of output

In this issue of Molecular Cell, Webster et al. (2018) and Yi et al. (2018) dissect the mechanisms underlying cytoplasmic mRNA deadenylation by the Ccr4-Not (CNOT) complex. Crucial to this process is the poly(A) binding protein Pab1/PABPC1, which both stimulates and suppresses the activity of different deadenylases. In this issue of Molecular Cell, Webster et al.
