- New microscopy method resolves fluorescent molecules with resolution at the nanometer scale
Scientists working with Stefan Hell at the Max Planck Institute (MPI) for Biophysical Chemistry in Göttingen and the Heidelberg-based MPI for Medical Research have developed another light microscop...
- A crucial resolution barrier in cryo-electron microscopy has been broken
Holger Stark and his team at the Max Planck Institute (MPI) for Biophysical Chemistry have observed single atoms in a protein structure for the first time and taken the sharpest images ever with th...
- Fewer laboratory animals thanks to secondary nanobodies
Antibodies are indispensable in biological research and medical diagnostics. However, their production is time-consuming, expensive, and requires the use of many animals. Scientists at the Max Plan...
- Enhancing carbon-13NMR signals in liquids
Limitations in sensitivity often complicate the analysis of complex (bio)molecules by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Now, a research team headed by Marina Bennati at the Max Planck ...
- Ultimate resolution limit in fluorescence microscopy achieved
It is the holy grail of light microscopy: improving the resolving power of this method such that one can individually discern molecules that are very close to each other. Scientists around the Nobe... - Watching molecular machines at work
An international team of scientists from Austria, Germany, and the United States has combined newly developed techniques in electron microscopy and protein assembly to elucidate how cells regulate ...
- Co-translational protein folding on the ribosome monitored in real time
Proteins are biopolymers assembled from 20 naturally occurring amino acids connected via peptide bonds. In living cells the process of protein synthesis is catalyzed by ribosomes which translate th...
