Contact NowCells can manipulate a number of physicochemical condition parameters to construct and maintain biomolecular condensates with defined properties, such as the concentration, solubility, affinity, or valence of biomolecules. Changes in protein concentration can be caused by transcriptional bursts or the release of proteins from the reservoir. CD BioSciences offers professional services to analyze the regulation of biomolecular phase separation by concentration changes.
The liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) of biomolecular condensates is driven by multivalent interactions between proteins and nucleic acids. Phase transition is a well-known process that occurs spontaneously when the concentration of a component reaches a certain threshold and is ubiquitous and plays an important role within living cells. Importantly, whether phase separation occurs depends strongly on the concentration and properties of the macromolecular solution, as well as on environmental conditions, including temperature, salt type and concentration, co-solubles, pH, and the volume repelled by other macromolecules. It has been shown that RNA in the nucleus can dynamically regulate the phase separation behavior of transcriptional complexes using a non-equilibrium feedback control mechanism in which the concentration of RNA varies with the transcriptional process.

Biomolecular condensates strongly depend on the concentration of the biomolecule of interest. We offer in vitro liquid-liquid phase separation experiments to precisely measure light or dense phase concentrations of CL and CD. Here, CD BioSciences focuses on how cells manipulate biomolecule concentrations to construct and maintain biomolecular condensates with defined properties. We offer the following strategies:
We develop customized experiments to analyze the regulation of biomolecular phase separation by concentration changes, including:
Living cells regulate the assembly of biomolecular condensates by changing the concentration of biomolecules. Our services aim to provide an understanding of phase separation to develop new therapeutic strategies for LLPS-related diseases. If you have any special requirements for our services, please feel free to contact us. We are looking forward to working together with your attractive projects.
