Bridging the spatiotemporal scales of macromolecular transport in crowded biomimetic systems

Abstract

We combine single-molecule conformational tracking with digital Fourier microscopy to couple crowding-induced conformations and trajectories of single molecules with ensemble-averaged transport properties across an unprecedented spatiotemporal range to elucidate the complex dynamics of large DNA crowded by custom-designed networks of actin and microtubules.
