Label-free autofluorescence lifetime reveals the structural dynamics of ataxin-3 inside droplets formed via liquid–liquid phase separation

Abstract Liquid–liquid phase separation is a phenomenon that features the formation of liquid droplets containing concentrated solutes. The droplets of neurodegeneration-associated proteins are prone to generate aggregates and cause diseases. To uncover the aggregation process from the droplets, it...
