3/3 The elegant part: no winner declared upfront — the screen exposes which mechanisms are information-rich and which are just noise. If you could test one carrier in your own cells, which would you bet on? #academicsky #biophysics #sciwri
Kopel (2026) proposes a shared standard: treat each carrier as an oscillator and count how many distinguishable labels it can hold. The quality-factor screen lets microtubule excitations, EM fields, and vibrations compete fairly. https://arxiv.org/pdf/2608.10560v2 #academicsky #biophysics #sciwri
1/3 Cells are full of oscillators — microtubules, ion currents, molecular vibrations. Each has been proposed as a biological signal carrier. But how do we fairly compare them? A new screen asks: how many labels can an oscillator carry? #academicsky #biophysics #sciwri

Heart rate is controlled, in part, by the opening and closing of the ion channel HCN4. In @jgp.org, Blecker, Bankston and colleagues describe the functionally relevant domains of both the channel and its ER-resident potentiator, IRAG. rupress.org/jgp/article/...
Join us Friday Sept. 18 @ 12pm CT as Michael Shelley, PhD presents the Monthly Seminar on Physical Genomics: "Modeling Chromatin as an Active Polymer Melt" live on Zoom.

3/3 Why it matters: if we can read IR spectra as molecular choreography, we get a label-free window into folding, allostery, and drug binding — no crystals needed. Which protein motion would you most want to watch? #academicsky #biophysics
1/3 When infrared light meets a protein, the spectrum hides a story: which bonds twist, stretch, and breathe. New simulations decode that choreography. #academicsky #biophysics
🔬 Next in our Nobel Series: 1991 Laureate Bert Sakmann! 🧠
He revolutionized physiology by inventing the patch-clamp technique to measure micro-currents in single cell membranes.

Jessica Sheu-Gruttadauria et al. show that the material properties of the #nucleolus are shaped by the assembly state of ribosomal precursors, which tune nucleolar dynamics and morphology through their interactions with the nucleolar scaffolding protein NPM1. rupress.org/jcb/article/...

1/3 Can a weak magnetic field really change how your cells make reactive oxygen? Quantum spin says maybe — and it's not about heating at all. What's your take? #academicsky #quantumbiology #biophysics
