Abstract excerpt
Liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) is hypothesized to be the underlying mechanism for how membraneless organelles or biomolecular condensates form inside both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Protein LLPS is a biophysical process during which proteins demix from homogeneous solution to form protein-dense droplets with liquid-like properties. Disruptions to LLPS, such as changes to material properties of...
