Abstract excerpt
T-cell restriction intracellular antigen 1 (TIA1) is an RNA-binding protein that is a major component of stress granules (SGs). The low complexity domain (LCD) of TIA1 plays a central role in facilitating SGs assembly through liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS). Disruption of the LLPS process has been associated with several diseases. It has recently been shown that the proline-rich domain affects the LLPS...
