His team has been working on making systems that mimic natural ion channels, for example, but much bigger so that they can transport entire molecules. (sciencemag.org)
Using these models, we get a global view of the entire molecule and they also allow us to study changes in large proteins using a laptop in only a few minutes,» explains Orellana. (sciencedaily.com)
Charge separation on one end of the peptide creates a dipole moment (indicated by ellipses) that aligns with the electric field and rotates the entire molecule. (sciencedaily.com)
