Characterization of design grammar of peptides for regulating liquid droplets and aggregates of FUS

Abstract Liquid droplets of aggregation-prone proteins, which become hydrogels or form amyloid fibrils, are a potential target for drug discovery. In this study, we proposed an experiment-guided protocol for characterizing the design grammar of peptides that can regulate droplet formation and aggreg...
