Abstract

Proteins containing intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) often mediate the formation of phase-separated biomolecular condensates involved in cellular signaling, epigenetic inheritance, and disease pathology. Mechanistically, these protein condensates are thought to be important for physical sequestration, membrane selectivity, and control of biochemical microenvironments. However, assessing the physical validity of these functions requires an understanding of both the detailed microstructure and particle hydrodynamics within these compartments.
