This study explores the use of polarized second-harmonic generation (pSHG) to investigate myosin conformation in the relaxed state, differentiating between the actin-available, disordered (ON) state ...

SMC (structural maintenance of chromosomes) protein complexes are ring-shaped molecular motors essential for genome folding. Despite recent progress, the detailed molecu ...

Watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) is a nutrient-dense fruit rich in lycopene and L-citrulline, with demonstrated antioxidant, ...

How proteins in our cells attain their correct three-dimensional structure is crucial to their function—and to our health. Errors in this process can lead to serious diseases. Researchers at the ...

A molecular motor (blue) is rotated by oxidation with an enzyme (green), followed by reduction with ammonia borane (yellow).
