Cracking the Nucleolar Code: MIT Unravels Evolutionary Secrets of the Nucleolus

Posted by in category: futurism

A single protein can self-assemble to build the scaffold for a biomolecular condensate that makes up a key nucleolar compartment.

Inside all living cells, loosely formed assemblies known as biomolecular condensates perform many critical functions. However, it is not well understood how proteins and other biomolecules come together to form these assemblies within cells.
