Phase behavior of solvent-nematogen mixtures
Sullivan Bailey-Darland, Takumi Matsuzawa, Eric R. Dufresne
Liquid mixtures with a nematogen can undergo both fluid phase separation and a transition from an isotropic to a nematic state. These phase transitions can couple and lead to phase…
Liquid-liquid phase separation of proteins is modulated by amino acids in vitro and in vivo by regulating protein-protein interactions
Xufeng Xu, Aleksander A. Rebane, Laura R. Julia +3
Liquid liquid phase separation (LLPS) of proteins is an intracellular process that is widely used by cells for many purposes. In living cells (in vivo), LLPS occurs in complex and…
Phase separation dependent active motion of Janus lipid vesicles
Vivien Willems, Alexandre Baron, Daniel A. Matoz Fernandez +4
Active colloidal systems have emerged as promising contenders for the future of microdevices. While conventional designs have extensively exploited the use of hard colloids, the ad…
Elastic ripening and inhibition of liquid-liquid phase separation
Kathryn A. Rosowski, Tianqi Sai, Estefania Vidal-Henriquez +3
Phase separation has recently emerged as an important organizational principle in the dense and heterogeneous environment within living cells. Here, we use a synthetic system to sh…
