Demixing of multicomponent biomolecular systems via liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) has emerged as a potentially unifying mechanism governing the formation of several membrane-less intracellular organelles ("condensates"), both in the cytoplasm (e. g., stress granules) and in the nucleoplasm (e. g., nucleoli).
