    Efficient analysis of mammalian polysomes in cells and tissues using Ribo Mega-SEC

    Harunori Yoshikawa, Mark Larance ... Angus I Lamond
    Translationally active polysomes from mammalian cells/tissues are successfully separated with rapidity, high efficiency and exceptional reproducibility by a SEC-based approach, an accessible alternative to the conventional sucrose density gradient analysis.

    Dissecting the phase separation and oligomerization activities of the carboxysome positioning protein McdB

    Joseph L Basalla, Claudia A Mak ... Anthony G Vecchiarelli
    Carbon-fixing organelles, called carboxysomes, link to their spatial organization system in the bacterial cell by a hexameric protein that forms pH-dependent condensates via a nuanced multidomain mechanism.

    Synergistic phase separation of two pathways promotes integrin clustering and nascent adhesion formation

    Lindsay B Case, Milagros De Pasquale ... Michael K Rosen
    Biochemical and cell biological data suggest a model of nascent integrin adhesion complex formation based on synergistic phase separation of pathways surrounding the focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and the adaptor protein p130Cas.

    A novel checkpoint pathway controls actomyosin ring constriction trigger in fission yeast

    Tomás Edreira, Rubén Celador ... Yolanda Sánchez
    In fission yeast cell wall stress triggers a cytokinesis blockage specifically in the onset of actomyosin ring constriction.

    A tension-adhesion feedback loop in plant epidermis

    Stéphane Verger, Yuchen Long ... Olivier Hamant
    Tensile stress patterns in tissues are revealed by cell-cell adhesion defects; in turn, cell responses to supracellular tension require cell-cell adhesion.

    Insulator-based dielectrophoresis-assisted separation of insulin secretory vesicles

    Mahta Barekatain, Yameng Liu ... Mark A Hayes
    An unbiased separation method reveals distinct subpopulations of insulin secretory vesicles that undergo dynamic remodeling upon glucose stimulation.

    Multiple polarity kinases inhibit phase separation of F-BAR protein Cdc15 and antagonize cytokinetic ring assembly in fission yeast

    Rahul Bhattacharjee, Aaron R Hall ... Kathleen L Gould
    Biochemical studies and molecular dynamics simulations indicate that dephosphroylation of F-BAR protein Cdc15 promotes cytokinesis ring assembly in yeast via conformation change of intrinsically disorder regions and condensate formation.

    Sister kinetochore splitting and precocious disintegration of bivalents could explain the maternal age effect

    Agata P Zielinska, Zuzana Holubcova ... Melina Schuh
    Multiple age-related changes in chromosome architecture could explain why human oocyte aneuploidy increases with advanced maternal age.

    Narrow equilibrium window for complex coacervation of tau and RNA under cellular conditions

    Yanxian Lin, James McCarty ... Songi Han
    Liquid-liquid phase separation of tau is demonstrated to be an equilibrium state, stable only within a narrow range near physiological conditions, and thus has the capacity to regulate biological processes.
