Journal ArticleDOI

Formation and Maturation of Phase-Separated Liquid Droplets by RNA-Binding Proteins

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the disordered regions of key RNP granule components and the full-length granule protein hnRNPA1 can phase separate in vitro, producing dynamic liquid droplets.
Journal ArticleDOI

Compositional Control of Phase-Separated Cellular Bodies

TL;DR: The data suggest a conceptual framework for considering the composition and control of cellular bodies assembled through heterotypic multivalent interactions, suggesting how their compositions could be controlled by levels of PML SUMOylation or cellular mRNA concentration, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intrinsically disordered sequences enable modulation of protein phase separation through distributed tyrosine motifs

TL;DR: Results show that low-complexity IDRs can modulate LLPS both positively and negatively, depending on the degree of aromaticity and phosphorylation status, and provide plausible mechanisms by which these sequences could alter RNA granule properties on evolutionary and cellular timescales.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intrinsically Disordered Regions Can Contribute Promiscuous Interactions to RNP Granule Assembly.

TL;DR: Evidence is provided for an assembly mechanism of large cellular structures wherein specific protein-protein or protein-RNA interactions act together with promiscuous interactions of intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs).
