Published: October 2021

Biomolecular condensates, regardless of whether they exhibit liquid-like properties, are in many cases not fully amorphous, but instead exhibit partial degrees of local structure and order. Here, we discuss how ordered interactions may underlie the cooperative assembly and cellular function of a wide variety of partially ordered macromolecular assemblies.
