Protein Condensates

Protein Condensates is a mesoscale biomolecular assembly formed through liquid-liquid phase separation of proteins, often with nucleic acids, that exhibits dynamic, non-membrane-bound organization critical for cellular structure, regulation, and function within the context of soft matter biophysics.
