An interesting paper. Very rigorous comparison between in vivo and in vitro assays.
1/ A new paper from PhD student Marius Hedtfeld tests in vitro phase separation assays as predictors of localisation in cell compartments.
We explain why homotypic or simple heterotypic LLPS assay are unlikely to predict macromolecular localization...
