How do RNAs phase separate without proteins? 💧💧🩸🩸.We are excited to share this story with you (preprint) "RNAs undergo phase transitions with lower critical solution temperatures". A longer thread will follow soon. @gable_wadsworth @PappulabWashU.

Happy to share our new preprint on small molecule mediated inhibition of aging of biomolecular condensates.
In our new preprint, we study the physical aging of biochemically active condensates formed by an engineered Tau protein into disease-linked amyloid fibrils — and investigate whether small molecules can counteract this transition. @BanerjeeLab_UB .🧵1/3

New preprint in collaboration with @jerelleaj!! We show that the 2’-OH group of ribose sugar plays a crucial role in RNA condensation, while its absence in DNA inhibits phase separation and percolation, a transition linked to condensate arrest. 1/2.
