      Higher-order supramolecular complexes-dubbed signalosomes carry out key signaling and effector functions in innate immunity and inflammation. In this review, we present several recently discovered signalosomes that are formed either by stable protein-protein interactions or by dynamic liquid-liquid phase separation. Structural features of these signalosomes are highlighted to elucidate their functions and biological insights.
