Optical microscopy has for centuries been a key tool to study living cells with minimum
invasiveness. The advent of single molecule techniques over the past two decades has …

Super-resolution microscopy provides direct insight into fundamental biological processes
occurring at length scales smaller than light's diffraction limit. The analysis of data at such …

We examine the capability of mean square displacement (MSD) analysis to extract reliable
values of the diffusion coefficient D of a single particle undergoing Brownian motion in an …

The actin cytoskeleton has been implicated in restricting diffusion of plasma membrane
components. Here, simultaneous observations of quantum dot-labelled FcɛRI motion and …

Optical imaging of single biomolecules and complexes in living cells provides a useful
window into cellular processes. However, the three-dimensional dynamics of most important …

In recent years, the development of fast and highly sensitive microscopy has changed the
way of thinking of cell biologists: it became more and more important to study the structural …

Liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS) is emerging as a key physical principle for biological
organization inside living cells, forming condensates that play important regulatory roles …

Chemistry, University of Illinois at Chicago, Chicago, IL, USA. The evaluation of nucleotide
photoionization threshold energies provides useful information for understanding …

A current challenge in cell motility studies is to understand the molecular and physical
mechanisms that govern chemokine receptor nanoscale organization at the cell membrane …

Background Understanding gene transcription and mRNA-protein (mRNP) dynamics in
single cells in a multicellular organism has been challenging. The catalytically dead …
