In humans, there is a specialized molecule on the surface of cells termed MR1. MR1 allows sensing of certain small molecule metabolites derived from cellular and microbial sources; however ...
Single-molecule biophysics is the study of the dynamics and interactions of individual biomolecules to understand how they carry out their functions in living cells. For example, monitoring the ...
Take an assembled bicyclic molecule, which in its simplest form, norbornene, might look like the number eight on a digital clock face. It's possible to insert a carbon atom in the center of the ...
