The ability to move is key for bacteria like some strains of salmonella and E. coli to efficiently spread infections. They can propel themselves forward using threads, known as flagella, powered by ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. — Inside neurons, motor proteins haul precious cargo, moving essential goods along thread-like roadways called microtubule tracks. This miniature highway system is vital for keeping ...

Understanding this motion may help to tackle health problems that affect cilia, which range from fertility issues to lung disease and COVID-19. Using cryo-electron tomography, researchers have ...

There are billions of bacteria around us and in our bodies, most of which are harmless or even helpful. But some bacteria such as E. coli and salmonella can cause infections. The ability to swim can ...

It’s a scientist’s dream to observe proteins in motion: an enzyme wrapping snuggly around its substrate, or a motor protein skipping along the cytoskeleton. But tools to visualize these subtle ...
