Abstract
In mammalian cells, besides nuclei, mitochondria are the only semi-autonomous organelles possessing own DNA organized in the form of nucleoids. While eukaryotic nuclear DNA compaction, chromatin compartmentalization and transcription are regulated by phase separation, our recent work proposed a model of mitochondrial nucleoid self-assembly and transcriptional regulation by multi-phase separation. Herein, we summarized the phase separation both in the nucleus and mitochondrial nucleoids, and did a comparison of the organization and activity regulating, which would provide new insight into the understanding of both architecture and genetics of nucleus and mitochondrial nucleoids.
