Structure and rheology of polyelectrolyte complex coacervates.
Scattering investigations of the structure and chain conformations, and the rheological properties of polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs) comprising model polyelectrolytes are presented. The use of charged polypeptides - (poly)-lysine and (poly)-glutamic acid with identical backbones allowed for facile tuning of the system parameters, including chain length, side-chain functionality, and chirality...
متن کاملRNA stores tau reversibly in complex coacervates
Nonmembrane-bound organelles that behave like liquid droplets are widespread among eukaryotic cells. Their dysregulation appears to be a critical step in several neurodegenerative conditions. Here, we report that tau protein, the primary constituent of Alzheimer neurofibrillary tangles, can form liquid droplets and therefore has the necessary biophysical properties to undergo liquid-liquid phas...
متن کاملComplex coacervation of supercharged proteins with polyelectrolytes.
Complexation of proteins with polyelectrolytes or block copolymers can lead to phase separation to generate a coacervate phase or self-assembly of coacervate core micelles. However, many proteins do not coacervate at conditions near neutral pH and physiological ionic strength. Here, protein supercharging is used to systematically explore the effect of protein charge on the complex coacervation ...
متن کاملCluster formation in polyelectrolyte-micelle complex coacervation.
The temperature-induced liquid-liquid phase transition (complex coacervation) of a polycation-anionic/nonionic mixed micelle system was examined over a range of macroion concentrations and polycation molecular weights (MW) using turbidimetry and dynamic light scattering (DLS). DLS revealed a progressive increase in complex/aggregate size with temperature up to the phase transition at T(φ), foll...
متن کاملA Review on Thermodynamics and Functional Properties of Complex Coacervates
Complex coacervation is defined as associative interactions between oppositely charged functional groups of proteins and polysaccharides, which on separation, form a phase rich in polymeric compounds in equilibrium with another aqueous phase. So coacervates are macro-ionic hydrated complexes of two charged neutralized bioploymers. Voorn and Overbeek developed the first model on complex coacerva...
