This study shows ion gradients drive diffusiophoresis, enhancing transport and phase separation of biomolecular condensates through active motility and redistribution.

This study investigates how sequence-specific interactions influence the viscoelastic properties and aging dynamics of protein condensates formed by prion-like low-complexity domains.

This study investigates the molecular factors controlling viscoelasticity and flow activation energy in biomolecular condensates using engineered polypeptides and DNA.

The paper shows RNAs undergo phase transitions with lower critical solution temperatures, driven by Mg2+ and phosphate backbone interactions, and can suppress RNase P activity.

This study shows FUS-DDIT3 oncofusion protein forms condensates that recruit SWI/SNF chromatin remodelers via PLD-PLD interactions, leading to transcriptional reprogramming.

The paper investigates the viscoelastic properties of protein-RNA condensates formed by sticker-spacer polypeptides and shows how sequence composition tunes their mechanical behavior.

The paper shows how competition between protein-RNA interactions drives phase separation into distinct condensate morphologies, determined by stoichiometry and interaction hierarchy.

This study identifies a new phase of RNA-protein condensates forming hollow vesicles through phase separation, distinct from typical liquid droplets.

The paper investigates the molecular forces driving reentrant liquid condensation in RNP-RNA complexes, showing how short-range attractions and long-range repulsions control phase transitions.

This study shows that divalent cations influence the switch between heterotypic and homotypic RNA coacervates by altering their physical and chemical properties.
