Once considered unconventional cellular structures, membraneless organelles (MLOs),
cellular substructures involved in biological processes or pathways under physiological …

This review examines the dynamic mechanisms underlying cellular signaling,
communication, and adhesion via transient, nano-scale, liquid-like molecular assemblies on …

Excitatory and inhibitory synapses do not overlap even when formed on one submicron-
sized dendritic protrusion. How excitatory and inhibitory postsynaptic cytomatrices or …

The synapse is polarized and highly compartmentalized on both its pre-and postsynaptic
sides. The compartmentalization of synaptic vesicles, as well as vesicle releasing and …

FOXA1 serves as a crucial pioneer transcription factor during developmental processes and
plays a pivotal role as a mitotic bookmarking factor to perpetuate gene expression profiles …

Phase separation, also known as biomolecule condensate, participates in physiological
processes such as transcriptional regulation, signal transduction, gene expression, and …

Can the fusion/fission of biomolecular condensates be regulated in cells? In a recent study,
Wu et al. show that phosphorylation of a key scaffold protein that drives condensates in …

A neuronal synapse is formed by juxtaposition of a transmitter releasing presynaptic bouton
of one neuron with a transmitter receiving postsynaptic compartment such as a spine …

Synapses are organized by trans-synaptic adhesion molecules that coordinate assembly of
pre-and postsynaptic specializations, which, in turn, are composed of scaffolding proteins …

Completely water‐based multicompartment systems have attracted a broad interest in recent
years, mainly due to their versatile features such as permeability. Here, the associative …
