Single-molecule approaches embrace molecular cohorts

Cell. 2013 Aug 15;154(4):723-6. doi: 10.1016/j.cell.2013.07.012.

Abstract

Enormous mechanistic insight has been gained by studying the behavior of single molecules. The same approaches used to study proteins in isolation are now being leveraged to examine the changes in functional behavior that emerge when single molecules have company.
