Research output: Contribution to journal › Comment/debate

Abstract

In a recent Nature article, Zhang et al.¹ develop a non-natural micropeptide killswitch that modulates the material properties and biomolecular composition of target condensates, enabling direct regulation of cellular processes in condensatopathies.
