LiquOrg Do liquid crystal-like phases of proteins organize membrane compartments?
Coordinator: CENTRE NATIONAL DE LA RECHERCHE SCIENTIFIQUE CNRS (FR)
We are in the midst of a revolution in our understanding of the internal organization of cells. In the 1950s we learned that lipid bilayer-based membranes serve as containers (organelles) within the cytoplasm. Now we are learning that liquid-like membrane-less organelles i.e. without any container, self-assemble based on liquid-liquid phase separations. We propose the seemingly radical idea that membrane-bounded organelles like their membrane-less counterparts- are stabilized or even templated by analogous phase separations of their surface proteins into largely planar liquids akin to liquid …
About Horizon 2020 (2014–2020)
Horizon 2020 was the EU's flagship research and innovation programme for 2014–2020, with a budget of around €77 billion. It bundled FP7's strands with the EIT and the Competitiveness and Innovation Programme, introduced a stronger societal-challenge orientation, and pushed the funding logic toward closer-to-market innovation. New calls closed in 2020 but funded projects continued through 2024.
EU contribution: €11.2M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 6 years from 2021-09-01 to 2027-08-31.
