Journal ArticleDOI
Single particle tracking. Analysis of diffusion and flow in two-dimensional systems.
TL;DR: The single particle tracking method, based on observations of the trajectories of individual particles, is compared with methods that characterize the motions of a large collection of particles such as fluorescence photobleaching recovery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Parameters of Helix-Coil Transition Theory for Alanine-Based Peptides of Varying Chain Lengths in Water *
TL;DR: The success of helix–coil theory in describing the unfolding transitions of short peptides in water indicates that helical propensities, or s values, can be determined from substitution experiments in short alanine‐based peptides.
Journal ArticleDOI
Energy balance for analysis of complex metabolic networks.
TL;DR: Energy balance analysis (EBA) is introduced--the theory and methodology for enforcing the laws of thermodynamics in such simulations--making the results more physically realistic and revealing greater insight into the regulatory and control mechanisms operating in complex large-scale systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phosphorylation energy hypothesis : Open chemical systems and 'their biological functions
TL;DR: This review presents an overview of a statistical thermodynamic treatment for such systems, with examples from several key components in cellular signal transduction from open-system nonequilibrium steady-state (NESS) models.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nanometre-level analysis demonstrates that lipid flow does not drive membrane glycoprotein movements
TL;DR: Nanometre-level analyses of the movements of membrane glycoproteins tagged with gold particles demonstrate that diffusing particles are not under the influence of a lipid flow, although a subset of particles which appear attached to the cyto-skeleton are moving rearward.
