Biomolecular condensates are found throughout eukaryotic cells, including in the nucleus, in
the cytoplasm and on membranes. They are also implicated in a wide range of cellular …

Many biomolecular condensates appear to form via spontaneous or driven processes that
have the hallmarks of intracellular phase transitions. This suggests that a common …

Proteins that self-assemble into polyhedral shell-like structures are useful molecular
containers both in nature and in the laboratory. Here we review efforts to repurpose diverse …

Motions in biomolecules are critical for biochemical reactions. In cells, many biochemical
reactions are executed inside of biomolecular condensates formed by ultradynamic …

Recent investigations in bacteria suggest that membraneless organelles play a crucial role
in the subcellular organization of bacterial cells. However, the biochemical functions and …

As sessile organisms, plants are highly sensitive to environmental stresses. In response to
stresses, globally repressed translation initiation leads to stress granule (SG) formation …

Advances in imaging technologies have revealed that many bacteria possess organelles
with a proteomically defined lumen and a macromolecular boundary. Some are bound by a …

Carbon fixation is the process by which CO2 is converted from a gas into biomass. The
Calvin–Benson–Bassham cycle (CBB) is the dominant carbon-consuming pathway on …

Carboxysomes are proteinaceous organelles that encapsulate key enzymes of CO2 fixation—
Rubisco and carbonic anhydrase—and are the centerpiece of the bacterial CO2 …

Carboxysomes are a family of bacterial microcompartments in cyanobacteria and
chemoautotrophs. They encapsulate Ribulose 1, 5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase …
