Bioinformatic approaches of liquid-liquid phase separation in human disease
Biomolecular aggregation within cellular environments via liquid-liquid phase separation(LLPS)spontaneously forms drop-let-like structures,which play pivotal roles in diverse biological processes.These structures are closely associated with a range of diseases,including neurodegenerative disorders,cancer and infectious diseases,highlighting the significance of understanding LLPS mechanisms for elucidating disease pathogenesis,and exploring potential therapeutic interventions.In this review,we delineate recent advancements in LLPS research,emphasizing its pathological relevance,therapeutic considerations,and the pivotal role of bioinformatic tools and databases in facilitating LLPS investigations.Additionally,we undertook a comprehensive analysis of bioinformatic resources dedicated to LLPS research in order to elucidate their functionality and applicability.By providing comprehensive insights into current LLPS-related bioinformatics resources,this review highlights its implications for human health and disease.
