Scientists have long strived to develop artificial molecular motors that can convert energy into directed motion. Researchers have now presented a solution to a challenging problem: how motion can be ...

Molecular motors are biological nanomachines that convert chemical energy into mechanical work at the molecular level. These highly efficient and specialized proteins are responsible for a wide range ...

Imagine a microscopic locomotive moving back and forth along a track, propelling itself without any external force. At the molecular level, this concept forms the foundation of molecular motors -- ...

Biological molecular motors are sophisticated molecular machines that carry out cellular processes such as muscle contraction, cell division, vesicles and organelle trafficking, and maintain cell ...
