    Decoding phase separation of prion-like domains through data-driven scaling laws

    M Julia Maristany, Anne Aguirre Gonzalez ... Jerelle A Joseph
    Phase diagrams for 140 variants of prion-like low-complexity domains are computed to establish scaling laws that quantify the impact of amino acid mutations on the thermodynamic stability of condensates.

    Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5) activity is modulated by light and gates rapid phase shifts of the circadian clock

    Andrea Brenna, Micaela Borsa ... Urs Albrecht
    The light-modulated protein kinase CDK5 is important for phase shifts of the circadian clock, impacting phase delays through calcium influx and signaling pathways, crucial for adapting to jet lag.
