Molecular Imaging Technique Helps Observe Proteins’ Reactions in Real Time

Proteins are complex molecules that are responsible for carrying out all of the processes that sustain life. A better understanding of how these molecules perform their functions can be achieved by learning the assembly of their atoms and how the structure of this assembly changes as the atoms react. Until now, no imaging technique has allowed the observation of molecular movement in such speed and detail.
