Deciphering the Role of π-Interactions in Polyelectrolyte Complexes Using Rationally Designed Peptides

Electrostatic interactions, and specifically π-interactions play a significant role in the liquid-liquid phase separation of proteins and formation of membraneless organelles/or biological condensates. Sequence patterning of peptides allows creating protein-like structures and controlling the chemis...
