A Self‐Organized Liquid Reaction Container for Cellular Memory
Advanced Science, EarlyView.How cells restore epigenetic information lost during replication is not known. This work proposes a mechanism based on the formation of biomolecular condensates. These condensates are induced by the chromosome itself and serve as reaction vessels for reconstructing missing epigenetic markers.
