SNOR promotes translation restart after dormancy

Nature, Published online: 13 May 2026; doi:10.1038/s41586-026-10530-7 High-resolution in situ cryo-electron tomography in Schizosaccharomyces pombe identifies SNOR protein, which binds to ribosomes during dormancy induced by glucose depletion, priming them for rapid reactivation of protein synthesis upon glucose repletion.
