Polyphosphate, a universal stress response regulator, binds distinctively to different starting ensembles of the same protein leading to either condensates or aggregates that in turn can solubilize or further aggregate, showcasing their ability to finely control the assembly process.
Customized AlphaFold-based modeling of distinct functional states of the hERG channel, a major drug anti-target, significantly improves drug affinity predictions, enhancing cardiac safety screening for arrhythmia risk.
