Scanning force microscopy under aqueous solutions

C Bustamante et al. Curr Opin Struct Biol. 1997 Oct.

Abstract

Merely ten years after its invention, the scanning force microscope is becoming a powerful method to investigate the structure and dynamics of biological molecules under aqueous environments. From the visualization of transcription in real time to the mechanical manipulation of individual proteins, the advances made during the past year open up a vast number of exciting applications of this technique in biology.
