  "summary": "Receptor phase separation is common in signaling pathways, yet mechanisms that limit condensate size and drive their dissolution remain poorly understood. For example, phosphorylated EGFR forms large micron-scale condensates in vitro, but assembles into smaller nanoscale clusters in cells, suggesting cellular regulation of condensate size. Here, we show that the intrinsically disordered adaptor…",
