Oxygen depletion in biomolecular condensates is dominated by macromolecular density

Nature Communications
Biomolecular condensates are dynamic cellular compartments formed by the self-assembly of proteins and nucleic acids. Many metabolites partition into condensates based on their interactions with the macromolecular constituents; yet, whether gases behave ...

Defining the condensate landscape of fusion oncoproteins

Nature Communications, 2023
Fusion oncoproteins (FOs) arise from chromosomal translocations in ~17% of cancers and are often oncogenic drivers. Although some FOs can promote oncogenesis by undergoing liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) to form aberrant biomolecular condensates ...
