The interactions between whey protein isolate (WPI) and propylene glycol alginate (PGA)
were investigated as a function of pH and the mass ratio. The results showed that WPI and …

Polyelectrolytes have been at the center of interdisciplinary research for many decades. In
the field of polymer science and soft matter, they have provided the dimensions of …

Electrostatic interactions in polymeric systems are responsible for a wide range of liquid–
liquid phase transitions that are of importance for biology and materials science. Such …

We employed a combination of single chain in mean field methodology and constant pH
Monte Carlo framework to compare the influence of charge regulation and charge …

In this study, we investigated the behavioral patterns of gelatin (Gel) and Agar in terms of
composites and phase separation. As the pH (4.5–7.0) increased, the electrostatic …

Due to their wide availability, polypeptide/protein venoms produced by certain insects are of
high interest as potential active pharmacological ingredients; however, the number of …

Protein aggregation has been observed inside cells and holds true for membraneless
organelles. The precise understanding of protein dimerization is a prerequisite for …

We use direct simulations of particle–polyelectrolyte mixtures using the single chain in mean
field framework to extract the phase diagram for such systems. At high charges of the …

A synthetic strategy yielded polyelectrolytes and polyampholytes with tunable net charge for
complexation and protein binding. Organocatalytic ring-opening polymerizations yielded …

Protein-DNA interactions and protein-mediated DNA compaction play key roles in a range of
biological processes. The length scales typically involved in DNA bending, bridging …
