Abstract

Significance: Some proteins can undergo phase separation in vivo to form membraneless organelles with distinct physiological functions. In many cases, the driving force is believed to be the intrinsically disordered domains that lack regular structural features and can phase separate in vitro. Relating protein sequences to phase-separation propensity is the goal of this work. Toward this goal, we highlight the connection between the temperature where a single chain collapses, the temperature where interactions within a dilute solution favor self-association, and the critical temperature of phase separation. Our results show that these characteristic temperatures are highly correlated, suggesting that experiments performed in dilute conditions may be used to predict phase separation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
