The DEAD Box RNA helicase VBH-1 is a new player in the stress response in C. elegans.

The DEAD Box RNA helicase VBH-1 is a new player in the stress response in C. elegans.

For several years, DEAD box RNA helicase Vasa (DDX4) has been used as a bona fide germline marker in different organisms. C. elegans VBH-1 is a close homolog of the Vasa protein, which plays an important role in gametogenesis, germ cell survival and embryonic development. Here, we show that VBH-1 pr...
