The human body operates using various stimuli-responsive mechanisms, dictating biological activity via reaction to external cues. Hydrogels are networked hydrophilic polymeric materials that offer the potential to recreate aqueous environments wit...

A protocol of sample preparation for the visualization of single actin filaments at the nanoscale using atomic force microscopy for use in studies of engineered actin/DNA conjugated hydrogel complexes was developed. Hydrogels are cross-linked netw...
Myosin is a molecular motor that converts chemical energy to mechanical energy, thus generating force and movement in muscles and cells. Myosin interacts with two ligands, ATP (fuel) and actin filaments (motor’s tracks). Actomyosin interaction is ...
