Infrared Laser Heating Reveals a Reversible Phase Transition of Phosphofructokinase 1 in Mammalian Cells

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
In this study, we present a novel method to investigate the phase behavior of biomolecular condensates in living cells. The method complements FRAP experiments, expanding the existing toolbox for characterization of condensates within living cells. ABSTRACT Metabolic enzymes can operate in concerted networks, so‐called metabolons.

Topology‐Encoded Charge Polarity Governs Multiphase Organization in Intrinsically Disordered Protein Polymer Condensates

Small, EarlyView.
Electrostatic topology is shown to program phase separation and internal organization in thermoresponsive intrinsically disordered protein polymer (IDPP) condensates. By comparing oppositely charged IDPPs with a covalent diblock, chain connectivity is revealed to control charge compensation, dense‐phase micropolarity, miscibility, and apparent acid ...
