Abstract: Methods of assessing, such as characterizing or determining, condensate-associated characteristics of a compound, such as a test compound, and applications thereof are provided. For example, methods of determining a partition characteristic of a test compound in a target condensate, methods of determining a relative partition characteristic of a test compound in a target condensate, and methods of determining a condensate preference profile of a test compound are provided. Additionally, methods of designing and/or identifying and/or making a compound, or portion thereof, with a desired relative condensate partition characteristic are provided.

Abstract: Methods of identifying a compound, such as a test compound, and applications thereof are provided. For example, methods of identifying a compound that preferentially affects, increases, or decreases a level of association of a macromolecule with one or more target condensates or methods of identifying a compound that preferentially causes a macromolecule to associate or disassociate with one or more target condensates are provided. Additionally, methods of designing and/or identifying and/or making a compound, or portion thereof, with a desired characteristic are provided.
