Random-phase-approximation theory for sequence-dependent, biologically functional liquid-liquid phase separation of intrinsically disordered proteins
Yi-Hsuan Lin, Jianhui Song, Julie D. Forman-Kay +1
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are typically low in nonpolar/hydrophobic but relatively high in polar, charged, and aromatic amino acid compositions. Some IDPs undergo li…

Sequence-specific polyampholyte phase separation in membraneless organelles
Yi-Hsuan Lin, Julie D. Forman-Kay, Hue Sun Chan
Liquid-liquid phase separation of charge/aromatic-enriched intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) is critical in the biological function of membraneless organelles. Much of the p…
