    Abstract DEAD-box ATPase proteins are found in all clades of life and have been associated with a diverse array of RNA-processing reactions in eukaryotes, bacteria and archaea. Their highly conserved core enables them to bind RNA, often in an ATP-dependent manner. In the course of the ATP hydrolysis cycle, they undergo conformational rearrangements, which enable them to unwind short RNA duplexes or remodel RNA-protein complexes. Thus, they can function as RNA helicases or chaperones. However, when their conformation is locked, they can also clamp RNA and create ATP-dependent platforms for the formation of higher-order ribonucleoprotein complexes. Recently, it was shown that DEAD-box ATPases globally regulate the phase-separation behavior of RNA-protein complexes

    Abstract DEAD-box ATPases constitute a very large protein family present in all cells, often in great abundance. From bacteria to humans, they play critical roles in many aspects of RNA metabolism, and due to their widespread importance in RNA biology, they have been characterized in great detail at both the structural and biochemical levels. DEAD-box proteins function as RNA-dependent ATPases that can unwind short duplexes of RNA, remodel ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complexes, or act as clamps to promote RNP assembly. Yet, it often remains enigmatic how individual DEAD-box proteins mechanistically contribute to specific RNA-processing steps. Here, we review the role of DEAD-box ATPases in the regulation of gene expression and propose that one common function of these enzymes is in the regulation of liquid-liquid phase separation of RNP condensates.

    Title translation Critical reading of scientific arcticles on diagnostic studies.
    Abstract The issue of this review is diagnostic accuracy studies by means of which it can be determined how precisely a test can identify patients with or without a given target condition. Diagnostic accuracy studies vary substantially in design but usually report outcome measures such as sensitivity and specificity. Diagnostic accuracy studies can be critically appraised by using QUADAS-2. Some study characteristics to consider is the avoidance of a case-control study design, patient selection, and the reference standard. Also, the statistical imprecision and the applicability of a study to a general population are essential factors to consider.

    Abstract Biomolecular condensates require suitable control of material properties for their function. Here we apply Differential Dynamic Microscopy (DDM) to probe the material properties of an in vitro model of processing bodies consisting of out-of-equilibrium condensates formed by the DEAD-box ATPase Dhh1 in the presence of ATP and RNA. By applying this single-droplet technique we show that condensates within the same population exhibit a distribution of material properties, which are regulated on several levels. Removal of the low-complexity domains (LCDs) of the protein decreases the fluidity of the condensates. Structured RNA leads to a larger fraction of dynamically arrested condensates with respect to unstructured polyuridylic acid (polyU). Promotion of the enzymatic ATPase activity of Dhh1 reduces aging of the condensates and the formation of arrested structures, indicating that biochemical activity and material turnover can maintain fluid-like properties over time.

    Abstract Over the past years, liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) has emerged as a ubiquitous principle of cellular organization implicated in many biological processes ranging from gene expression to cell division. The formation of biological condensates, like the nucleolus or stress granules, by LLPS is at its core a thermodynamic equilibrium process. However, life does not operate at equilibrium, and cells have evolved multiple strategies to keep condensates in a non-equilibrium state. In this review, we discuss how these non-equilibrium drivers counteract solidification and potentially detrimental aggregation, and at the same time enable biological condensates to perform work and control the flux of substrates and information in a spatial and temporal manner.
