Could the cytoskeleton influence liquid-liquid phase separation? — •Eric Dufresne — ETH Zürich, Department of Materials

We have recently demonstrated using synthetic polymers that mechanical stresses can have a dramatic impact on the phenomena of liquid-liquid phase separation [1-3]. Shin et al [4] recently revealed a coupling of condensation to chromatin density, suggesting that similar effects may play a role in the condensation of liquid droplets in the nucleoplasm.

Here, I will describe our new experiments exploring the interaction of phase-separated domains to elements of the cytoskeleton.
