Amino acids bind to phase-separating proteins and modulate biomolecular condensate stability and dynamics

Xufeng Xu, Merlijn H. I. van Haren, Iris B. A. Smokers, Brent S. Visser, Paul B. White, Robert S. Jansen, Evan Spruijt

The paper investigates how amino acids interact with phase-separating proteins to modulate biomolecular condensate stability and dynamics.

Selective ion binding and uptake shape the microenvironment of biomolecular condensates

Iris B. A. Smokers, Enrico Lavagna, Rafael V. M. Freire, Matteo Paloni, Ilja Karina Voets, Alessandro Barducci, Paul B. White, Mazdak Khajehpour, Evan Spruijt

The paper quantifies ion binding to biomolecular condensates using NMR and shows that ion uptake follows water affinity matching, affecting condensate microenvironment and biochemical processes.
