Scientists post lower speed limit for cell-signaling protein assembly

Scientists post lower speed limit for cell-signaling protein assembly: ""People thought they understood how protein diffusion worked, but now our data suggests they're wrong by a factor of 1,000," MSU physics and astronomy assistant professor Lisa Lapidus said. "Now we can start changing the models - we've been trying to solve protein folding for 50 years, and now we're advancing our fundamental understanding of what unfolded proteins do before they fold."
