Deciphering the chemical grammar of protein-RNA condensates
Greta Grassmann, Giancarlo Ruocco, Mattia Miotto
Biomolecular phase separation is typically attributed to the polymer physics of long, disordered chains. However, the underlying chemical grammar, i.e. the specific interactions be…

Insights into the role of dynamical features in protein complex formation: the case of SARS-CoV-2 spike binding with ACE2
Greta Grassmann, Mattia Miotto, Francesca Alessandrini +4
The functionality of protein-protein complexes is closely tied to the strength of their interactions, making the evaluation of binding affinity a central focus in structural biolog…
