Electrostatics of salt-dependent reentrant phase behaviors highlights diverse roles of ATP in biomolecular condensates

Electrostatics of salt-dependent reentrant phase behaviors highlights diverse roles of ATP in biomolecular condensates

Liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) involving intrinsically disordered protein regions (IDRs) is a major physical mechanism for biological membraneless compartmentalization. The multifaceted electrostatic effects in these biomolecular condensates are exemplified here by experimental and theoretica...
