Molecular Assembly Lines in Active Droplets

  Cells assemble structures that have lots of molecules. How can such complicated structures be reliably assembled? We propose that cells could be organizing an assembly line process for the construction. We show how this could be organized inside droplets. In this video we explain our recent…

The key role of solvent in condensation: Mapping water in liquid-liquid phase-separated FUS

What drives the formation of biomolecular condensates from proteins in water? The Adams group, in collaboration with colleagues from Ruhr-University Bochum, Germany, measured the thermodynamic forces leading to the expulsion of water from condensates as they form through protein-protein…

The ALS-Associated FUS (P525L) Variant Does Not Directly Interfere with Microtubule-Dependent Kinesin-1 Motility

The Diez lab, in collaboration with the Hermann lab in Rostock, Germany, have utilised an in vitro microtubule gliding motility assay to study deficient intracellular transport in motor neurons. The findings  exclude a role of mutations in the phase-separating FUS protein, known to be mutated in…

Cytoskeletal organization through multivalent interactions

Stefan Diez and collaborators Zdenek Lansky and Marcus Braun from the Institute of Biotechnology of the Czech Academy of Sciences, Czech Republic, published an Opinion article emphasizing the role of multivalent interactions cytoskeletal phenomena including (1) the generation of entropic forces by…

Kinetically distinct phases of tau on microtubules regulate kinesin motors and severing enzymes

The Diez and Hyman labs, in collaboration with the Lansky and Braun lab at the Institute of Biotechnology of the Czech Academy of Sciences, Czech Republic, published a study on the role of phase separation of the intrinsically disordered Tau protein  in regulating the activity of motor proteins and…
