Sequence grammar underlying the unfolding and phase separation of globular proteins
Aberrant phase separation of globular proteins is associated with many diseases. Here, we
use a model protein system to understand how the unfolded states of globular proteins drive …

Not always sticky: Specificity of protein stabilization by sugars is conferred by protein–water hydrogen bonds
GI Olgenblum, N Carmon, D Harries - Journal of the American …, 2023 - ACS Publications
Solutes added to buffered solutions directly impact protein folding. Protein stabilization by
cosolutes or crowders has been shown to be largely driven by protein–cosolute volume …

Molecular crowding: the history and development of a scientific paradigm
It is now generally accepted that macromolecules do not act in isolation but “live” in a
crowded environment, that is, an environment populated by numerous different molecules …
