Emerging links between phase separation and transcription factor haploinsufficiency
Abstract:
Recent studies have addressed the relevance of phase separation, by which membrane-less compartments are formed within the nucleus, to understand the impact of genetic variants. They highlight unsuspected links between phase separation and haploinsufficiency of transcription factors.
