Artificial organelles created to control cellular behavior: New form of synthetic biology for controlling cellular behavior uses intrinsically disordered proteins – Science Daily

Biomedical engineers at Duke University have demonstrated a method for controlling the phase separation of an emerging class of proteins to create artificial membrane-less organelles within human cells. The advance, similar to controlling how vinegar forms droplets within oil, creates opportunities for engineering synthetic structures to modulate existing cell functions or create entirely new behaviors within cells.The results appear online on August 3 in the journal Nature Chemistry.
