The paper shows how coupling enzymatic reactions to phase separation creates self-regulating compartments that modulate mRNA stability and levels.

The paper develops a mass-spectrometry-based method to absolutely quantify fluorescent protein fusions and estimate their mature chromophore fraction, validated through a case study on expression kinetics.

The paper investigates how NADH production affects the phase behavior of polyarginine in bicarbonate buffer, showing that it can tune material properties between precipitates, homogeneous solution, and liquid droplets.

This study demonstrates cell-free transcription and translation in proteinosomes made from native protein-polymer conjugates, showing enhanced stability and expression compared to traditional methods.

This study shows that ribozyme activity in coacervate droplets enhances polymer length and alters droplet behavior, linking genotype to phenotype in protocells.

This study demonstrates intercellular communication and feedback in synthetic multicellular systems using cell-free expression systems in droplet interface bilayers.

The paper characterizes RNA content in individual phase-separated coacervate microdroplets using high-throughput sequencing and identifies sequence motifs associated with RNA accumulation.
