Atomistic modeling of liquid-liquid phase equilibrium explains dependence of critical temperature on γ-crystallin sequence

Abstract Liquid-liquid phase separation of protein solutions has regained heightened attention for its biological importance and pathogenic relevance. Coarse-grained models are limited when explaining residue-level effects on phase equilibrium. Here we report phase diagrams for γ-crystallins using a...
