Macromolecular crowding: obvious but underappreciated
Trends in Biochemical Sciences, 2001Biological macromolecules evolve and function within intracellular environments that are crowded with other macromolecules. Crowding results in surprisingly large quantitative effects on both the rates and the equilibria of interactions involving macromolecules, but such interactions are commonly studied outside the cell in uncrowded buffers.

Liposome-Encapsulated Escherichia coli Lysates to Reconstitute Intracellular Macromolecular Crowding Effects [PDF]
Intracellular macromolecular crowding impacts biomacromolecule behavior, including oligomerization, phase separation, and diffusion. However, understanding crowding effects in cells is challenging as cells respond and adapt to perturbations.

Macromolecular dynamics in crowded environments
The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2010The structural and dynamical properties of macromolecules in confining or crowded environments are different from those in simple bulk liquids. In this paper, both the conformational and diffusional dynamics of globular polymers are studied in solutions containing fixed spherical obstacles.

Macromolecular Crowding and Protein Stability
Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2012An understanding of cellular chemistry requires knowledge of how crowded environments affect proteins. The influence of crowding on protein stability arises from two phenomena, hard-core repulsions and soft (i.e., chemical) interactions. Most efforts to understand crowding effects on protein stability, however, focus on hard-core repulsions, which are ...

Macromolecular Crowding and Its Consequences
1999Incompatible pairs of polymers separate into two phases in aqueous solution above a few percentage points total concentration. Protein pairs can also produce phase separation, but at somewhat higher concentrations. In this chapter, we explore the effect of high background concentrations of macromolecules on phase separation of pairs of species which ...
