For years, biomolecular condensates were thought to be simple, liquid-like droplets with little internal organization. New ...
A simulated cell in the early stages of division. Left half shows membrane (green cubes), and ribosomes (yellow/purple) interwoven through in the cell’s chromosome (red). Right side shows all the ...
