Summary
PROJECT SUMMARY The formation of biomolecular condensates (BMCs) is an important phenomenon in biology, creating transient compartments that can accelerate biochemical reactions or sequester molecules during times of stress. Aberrations in BMC formation are implicated in a growing number of diseases. Thus, molecular tools that enable researchers to monitor and manipulate BMCs are in great demand. Ideally, these tools could be deployed without engineering the biomolecules that drive BMC formation in order to avoid artifacts introduced by altering the sequence of the RNA or protein components. O
