| Method |
Researchers used fluorescence recovery after photobleaching
(FRAP) along with a detailed numerical model that simulates
FRAP experiments, to systematically investigate mobility
of cytoplasmic, inner membrane, and DNA-binding proteins
in Escherichia coli. |
| Comments |
Very large, 3200 kDa, membrane-embedded flagellar basal
bodies, with several tens of transmembrane helices, move
with apparent diffusion coefficients of ~0.005µm^2/sec (primary source). |
