Abstract excerpt
Compartmentalization by liquid-liquid phase separation is implicated in transcription. It remains unclear whether and how transcriptional condensates accelerate the search of transcriptional regulatory factors for their target sites. Furthermore, the molecular mechanisms by which regulatory factors nucleate on chromatin to assemble transcriptional condensates remain incompletely understood. The CBX-PRC1 complexes...
