  1. 1. Competition between Phase Separation and Micellization in a Coarse-Grained Protein Model with Two Components

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Författare :Fangxuan Lyu; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are widely believed to play a key role in the for- mation of intracellular biomolecular condensates through liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS). Furthermore, it has been shown in vitro that several IDPs are able to phase sepa- rate on their own. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Biomolecular condensates are aggregates formed from liquid-liquid phase separation through the interactions between nucleic acids and multivalent proteins. These condensates are essential for many biochemical processes inside the cell. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation of HP Lattice Proteins: A Finite-Size Scaling Analysis

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Sammanfattning : Biomolecular condensates are dense droplets of proteins and nucleic acids inside living cells that form through a liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) process, in which intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) often play an important role. Furthermore, it has been shown that several of these IDPs can form similar droplets on their own. LÄS MER
