Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation in Biology
Annual Review of Cell and Developmental Biology, 2014Cells organize many of their biochemical reactions in non-membrane compartments. Recent evidence has shown that many of these compartments are liquids that form by phase separation from the cytoplasm. Here we discuss the basic physical concepts necessary to understand the consequences of liquid-like states for biological functions.

Liquid–Liquid Phase Separation in Chromatin
Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2021In eukaryotic cells, protein and RNA factors involved in genome activities like transcription, RNA processing, DNA replication, and repair accumulate in self-organizing membraneless chromatin subcompartments. These structures contribute to efficiently conduct chromatin-mediated reactions and to establish specific cellular programs.

Liquid-liquid Phase Separation in Viral Function
Journal of Molecular Biology, 2023An emerging set of results suggests that liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) is the basis for the formation of membrane-less compartments in cells. Evidence is now mounting that various types of virus-induced membrane-less compartments and organelles are also assembled via LLPS.

Liquid–Liquid Phase Separation in Disease
Annual Review of Genetics, 2019We have made rapid progress in recent years in identifying the genetic causes of many human diseases. However, despite this recent progress, our mechanistic understanding of these diseases is often incomplete. This is a problem because it limits our ability to develop effective disease treatments.

Liquid–Liquid Phase Separation? Ask the Water!
The Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, 2023Water is more than an inert spectator during liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS), the reversible compartmentalization of protein solutions into a protein-rich and a dilute phase. We show that LLPS is driven by changes in hydration entropy and enthalpy. Tuning LLPS by adjusting experimental parameters, e.g., addition of co-solutes, is a major goal for
