How do individual lipid transport proteins work? Together with our international partners, we have developed a new microscopy platform that for the first time enables the analysis of single protein molecules. Our method reveals previously hidden differences between individual proteins, provides new insights into lipid transport, and opens up exciting perspectives for biomedical research.
Our research has been featured on the cover of Nature Structural & Molecular Biology. We are delighted that our manuscript was selected for this special recognition, highlighting the significance and visual impact of this work.
