Liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) and crystallization are intertwined phenomena of considerable importance in both fundamental research and industrial applications, particularly in the ...

Liquid-liquid phase separation is not a precursor to formation of amyloid fibrils, a pathological hallmark of Parkinson's disease, shows study. Rather, the formation of protein into liquid droplets ...

Intracellular proteins that condense into droplets via liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) have been suspected of favoring the formation of amyloid fibrils, and thereby causing neurodegenerative ...

A time-delay circuit enables precise control over the division of synthetic DNA droplets, which mimic biological Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation (LLPS) droplets found in cells. By utilizing a ...

Princeton bioengineer Clifford Brangwynne has been named a 2025 Keio Medical Science Prize Laureate for his discovery of liquid-liquid phase separation in cells. Japan’s Keio University awards the ...
