Author response: The interplay between biomolecular assembly and phase separation
Abstract
The authors present an important theoretical framework that describes the interplay between liquid-liquid phase separation and protein aggregation within a mean-field model.This work will be of high interest to the biophysics and molecular biology communities, as it will help understand and analyse assembly within biomolecular condensates in cells or in-vitro.Major strengths of this convincing work are the consideration of aggregates with various dimensionality and the possibility for protein gelation.
