    Multivalent interactions between biological molecules result in the formation of biomolecular condensates, a phenomenon known as Liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS). Biomolecular condensates have important cellular and physiological functions, and aberration in LLPS can result in pathologies. This

    The functions of biomolecules, including lipids, nucleic acids and especially proteins are determined to a great extent by their structure. This structure–function relationship is a foundation of many physiological processes. In this article series, Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology collates Reviews that present important structural findings and illuminate their mechanistic and functional significance.

    Metabolic pathways are dynamically regulated to meet the energy needs of the cell and maintain cell and organismal homeostasis. This series features Review articles that discuss various aspects of the regulation of metabolic signalling, the interface between metabolic regulators and cellular processes and the implications of their deregulation for human diseases.

    In this article series, Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology looks at the progress that has been made in identifying resident stem cells in different tissues and in characterizing these often-heterogeneous stem cell pools, as well as in understanding the intrinsic mechanisms and interactions with stem cell niches (the specialized microenvironments in which they reside) that regulate stem cell function.
