Cells recognize osmotic stress through liquid–liquid phase separation lubricated with poly(ADP-ribose)

Cells experience various osmotic perturbation, but cellular osmosensing mechanisms remain obscure. Here, the authors report that cells recognize osmotic stress from the inside through macromolecular crowding-driven and poly(ADP-ribose)-conditioned liquid–liquid phase separation.
