Origins of suppressed self-diffusion of nanoscale constituents of a complex liquid
Christian P. N. Tanner, Vivian R. K. Wall, Mumtaz Gababa +25
Understanding and ultimately controlling the transformations and properties of nanoscale systems, from proteins to synthetic nanomaterial assemblies, is limited by the inability to…
Single-shot sorting of Mössbauer time-domain data at X-ray free-electron lasers
Miriam Gerharz, Willi Hippler, Berit Marx-Glowna +28
Mössbauer spectroscopy is widely used to study structure and dynamics of matter with remarkably high energy resolution, provided by the narrow nuclear resonance line widths. Howev…
Coherent X-rays reveal anomalous molecular diffusion and cage effects in crowded protein solutions
Anita Girelli, Maddalena Bin, Mariia Filianina +38
Understanding protein motion within the cell is crucial for predicting reaction rates and macromolecular transport in the cytoplasm. A key question is how crowded environments affe…
Depletion-Induced Interactions Modulate Nanoscale Protein Diffusion in Polymeric Crowder Solutions
Michelle Dargasz, Nimmi Das Anthuparambil, Sebastian Retzbach +26
Macromolecular crowding plays a crucial role in modulating protein dynamics in cellular and in vitro environments. Polymeric crowders such as dextran and Ficoll are known to induce…
Softness and Hydrodynamic Interactions Regulate Lipoprotein Transport in Crowded Yolk Environments
Nimmi Das Anthuparambil, Michelle Dargasz, Sonja Timmermann +27
Low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) serve as nutrient reservoirs in egg yolk for embryonic development and as promising drug carriers. Both roles critically depend on their mobility in…
