โฆ Synopsis
Here we review recent work on measuring protein interactions, protein solution phase behaviour, the physical properties of the cytoplasm of cells, functional protein -protein interactions, and self-assembly. Highlights of recent work include the ability to engineer not just the solubility but also functional interactions of proteins, an increasing understanding of how these interactions work in the crowded and complex in vivo environment, and the formation of equilibrium clusters.

## Abstract Proteinโprotein interactions were measured for ovalbumin and for lysozyme in aqueous salt solutions. Proteinโprotein interactions are correlated with a proposed potential of mean force equal to the free energy to desolvate the protein surface that is made inaccessible to the solvent due
Protein-protein and protein-salt interactions have been obtained for ovalbumin in solutions of ammonium sulfate and for lysozyme in solutions of ammonium sulfate, sodium chloride, potassium isothiocyanate, and potassium chloride. The two-body interactions between ovalbumin molecules in concentrated
