  1. RNA chaperone Hfq assembles into #condensates in response to stress in #Ecoli, but what leads to Hfq’s #PhaseSeparation? This study shows that #polyphosphate scaffolds the formation of Hfq condensates, which then stabilize polyA transcripts critical for recovery @PLOSBiology plos.io/4tI0xby

  2. Today I gave a short talk at the #EMBO workshop on Intracellular and organelle mechanobiology. I’m grateful to have been able to share my postdoc project and for the questions/comments! The whole workshop has been super interesting, I have taken a lot of inspiration away from the talks so far and I am excited to for the rest of the day/week.

  7. `..phosphorylation of Optineurin by TBK1 induces the formation of filaments that phase separate upon binding to linear polyubiquitin.. the condensation of filamentous Optineurin with ubiquitylated cargo promotes the nucleation of cargo and its subsequent alignment with LC3-positive nascent autophagosomes, suggesting that co-condensation processes ensure directionality in selective autophagy`

  17. PRPP amidotransferase (PPAT) is rate-limiting in purine synthesis. This study shows that PPAT forms intracellular #condensates in response to high purine demand via #PhaseSeparation (driven by TORC1-mediated macromolecular crowding of cytoplasm) @PLOSBiology plos.io/3Yw2VVb

  28. Scientists find link between #photosynthesis and 'fifth state of matter' (#BoseEinsteinCondensate)

    "#Photosynthetic light harvesting is taking place in a system that is at room temperature and what's more, its structure is disordered—very unlike the pristine crystallized #materials and cold temperatures that you use to make #exciton #condensates."

  29. “A University of Chicago study found links at the atomic level between photosynthesis and #exciton #condensates—a strange state of physics that allows energy to flow frictionlessly through a material. The finding is scientifically intriguing and may suggest new ways to think about designing electronics”
