Biology is full of molecular machines, such as motor proteins and ATP synthase, that operate self-sufficiently through cycles of oxidation and reduction. A team of human chemists at the University of ...

The structural design of molecular machines and motors endows them with externally controlled directional motion at the molecular scale. Molecular machines based on both interlocked and ...

(Nanowerk News) Artificial molecular machines, nanoscale machines consisting of a few molecules, offer the potential to transform fields involving catalysts, molecular electronics, medicines, and ...

Rotaxanes and related molecular machines represent a rapidly developing class of mechanically interlocked molecules that have captured the interest of chemists and materials scientists alike.

Tiny machines built from individual molecules are moving from science fiction into working hardware, promising to reshape medicine, manufacturing, and even computing. Instead of gears and pistons, ...

Researchers at The University of Manchester have created a physics‑informed machine‑learning model that can run molecular ...

Scientists have discovered a new property of the molecular motors that shape our chromosomes. While six years ago they found that these so-called SMC motor proteins make long loops in our DNA, they ...

Imagine tiny machines, smaller than a virus, spinning inside cancer cells and rewiring their behavior from within. No surgery, no harsh chemicals, just precision at the molecular level. Two ...

Fraser Stoddart, an organic chemist who shared a Nobel Prize for helping explore the potential of infinitesimal “molecular machines” that could one day revolutionize fields such as medicine and ...

Ferrocene is a key molecule for developing molecular machines. However, it readily decomposes on the surface of flat noble metal substrates, marking a significant challenge. Now researchers have ...
