Biomolecular condensates are membrane-less organelles performing various functions inside cells which behaviour can be understood in terms of liquid-liquid phase separation and wetting. Here, the authors characterize the low interfacial tension regime of nanodroplets during endocytic and exocytic engulfment within an elastic membrane, study the role of the contact line symmetry, and show that nanodroplets and vesicles mutually remodel one another
