This study shows that differences in electrostatic potential between heterochromatin and euchromatin affect nucleosome stability and transcription factor access, explaining transcriptional differences.

This paper uses optogenetics to test how talin's activity and phase states influence integrin-adhesion complex (IAC) nucleation and stabilization, finding that biocondensation enables adhesion formation even without extracellular matrix.
