Coexisting Liquid Phases Underlie Nucleolar Subcompartments

TL;DR: It is shown that subcompartments within the nucleolus represent distinct, coexisting liquid phases that may facilitate sequential RNA processing reactions in a variety of RNP bodies, and suggested that phase separation can give rise to multilayered liquids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phase separation in biology; functional organization of a higher order

TL;DR: This review discusses the functional roles of membrane-less organelles, unifying structural and mechanistic principles that underlie their assembly and disassembly, and established and emerging methods used in structural investigations of membranes-lessorganelles.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nucleophosmin integrates within the nucleolus via multi-modal interactions with proteins displaying R-rich linear motifs and rRNA

TL;DR: It is shown that nucleophosmin (NPM1) integrates within the nucleolus via a multi-modal mechanism involving multivalent interactions with proteins containing arginine-rich linear motifs (R-motifs) and ribosomal RNA (rRNA), which are found in canonical nucleolar localization signals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Composition-dependent thermodynamics of intracellular phase separation

TL;DR: It is found that heterotypic interactions among protein and RNA components stabilize various archetypal intracellular condensates—including the nucleolus, Cajal bodies, stress granules and P-bodies—implying that the composition of condensate is finely tuned by the thermodynamics of the underlying biomolecular interaction network.
