This study shows that AGARP, a coral protein, influences calcium carbonate nucleation and growth through liquid-liquid phase separation, forming a protein-calcium condensate as a crystallization precursor.

This study investigates how counterion valency affects the electrostatic collapse of an intrinsically disordered protein, showing divalent cations induce greater compaction than monovalent cations.

This study shows TCF4 undergoes LLPS in vitro, which is reversible and regulated by DNA binding, suggesting a role in transcriptional activation and potential involvement in neurological diseases.

This study characterizes the molecular structure of TCF4, revealing it as a large intrinsically disordered protein with a stable bHLH domain and disordered regions that may mediate gene regulation.

The paper predicts diffusion coefficients of intrinsically disordered proteins using a new method combining minimum dissipation approximation and hydrodynamic interactions, validated against experimental data.
