Entering the Next Phase: Predicting Biological Effects of Biomolecular Condensates.

ABSTRACT

Biomolecular condensates are increasingly recognized as important drivers of cellular function; their dysregulation leads to pathology and disease. We discuss three questions in terms of the impending utility of data-driven techniques to predict condensate-driven biological outcomes, i.e., the impact of cellular state changes on condensates, the effect of condensates on biochemical processes within, and condensate properties that result in cellular dysregulation and disease.
