A pH-driven transition of the cytoplasm from a fluid- to a solid-like state promotes entry into dormancy

A pH-driven transition of the cytoplasm from a fluid- to a solid-like state promotes entry into dormancy

Cells can enter into a dormant state when faced with unfavorable conditions. However, how cells enter into and recover from this state is still poorly understood. Here, we study dormancy in different eukaryotic organisms and find it to be associated with a significant decrease in the mobility of org...
