Monovalent Ion Effect on Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation of Aqueous Polyphosphate-Salt Mixtures
Tomohiro Furuki, Azusa Togo, Hatsuho Usuda…·Kentaro Shiraki
This study shows that submolar NaCl induces liquid-liquid phase separation of polyphosphate solutions, while other monovalent salts do not, suggesting monovalent ions modulate polyP aggregate formation in cells.
