Extreme dynamics in a biomolecular condensate
Proteins and nucleic acids can phase-separate in the cell to form concentrated biomolecular condensates1–4. The functions of condensates span many length scales: they modulate interactions and chemical reactions at the molecular scale5, organize biochemical processes at the mesoscale6 and compartmentalize cells4. Understanding the underlying mechanisms of these processes will require detailed knowledge of the rich dynamics across these scales7. The mesoscopic dynamics of ...
