Researchers have identified a new physicochemical principle governing liquid–liquid phase separation in polymer solutions.

Liquid-liquid phase separation is not a precursor to formation of amyloid fibrils, a pathological hallmark of Parkinson's disease, shows study. Rather, the formation of protein into liquid droplets ...

Crystallization is a well-explored natural phenomenon where atoms or molecules arrange themselves into highly organized solid ...

Multivalent interactions between biological molecules result in the formation of biomolecular condensates, a phenomenon known as Liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS). Biomolecular condensates have ...

Princeton bioengineer Clifford Brangwynne has been named a 2025 Keio Medical Science Prize Laureate for his discovery of liquid-liquid phase separation in cells. Japan’s Keio University awards the ...

LLPS as a rising molecular entity in the cytoplasm regulates diseases progression via a variety of ways. For example, the relationship between LLPS and cancer can be summarized into six aspects: gene ...

Genetic engineers can design and assemble sophisticated gene circuits to program cells with new functions, but important signaling molecules can become diluted as these cells grow and divide, causing ...
