Different fates of free RNA during proteostasis stress. Polysome disassembly during stress releases free RNA into cytosol. The aberrant RNA–RNA and RNA–protein associations might lead to irreversible co-aggregates. We hypothesize that an orderly and reversible sequestration of free RNAs into RNA–protein granules has evolved to counteract the irreversible aggregation.
