Quantifying the phase separation property of chromatin-associated proteins under physiological conditions using an anti-1,6-hexanediol index

Background Liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) is an important organizing principle for biomolecular condensation and chromosome compartmentalization. However, while many proteins have been reported to undergo LLPS, quantitative and global analysis of chromatin LLPS property remains absent. Result...
