The role of biomolecular condensates in regulating biological function and the importance of dynamic interactions involving intrinsically disordered protein regions (IDRs) in their assembly are increasingly appreciated. While computational and theoretical approaches have provided significant insights into IDR phase behavior, establishing the critical interactions that govern condensation with atomic resolution through experiment is more difficult, given the lack of applicability of standard...

Biomolecular phase separation through the lens of sodium-23 NMR
Biomolecular phase separation through the lens of sodium-23 NMR
Abstract
Phase separation is a fundamental physicochemical process underlying the spatial arrangement and coordination of cellular events. Detailed characterization of biomolecular phase separation requires experimental access to the internal environment of dilute and especially condensed phases at high resolution. In this study, we take advantage from the ubiquitous presence of sodium ions in biomolecular samples and present the potentials of 23Na NMR as a proxy to report the internal fluidity of biomolecular condensed...

Authors: Suihko EJ, Forbes RT, Apperley DC
Molecular mobility and physical form of co-spray-dried sugar-lysozyme formulations were evaluated. Co-spray-dried trehalose:lysozyme and sucrose:lysozyme formulations in 1:9, 1:1 and 9:1 ratios (w:w) were stored at 0% RH and 75%...
