Abstract
Stress granules and inflammasomes are intracellular com- plexes that assemble in response to cellular stress signals, enabling cells to persist and perish, respectively. In a recent study published in Nature, Samir et al. identify the helicase DDX3X as a central decision maker in the formation of pro- survival stress granules or pro-death NLRP3 inflammasomes.
