A new paper co-authored by Penn Physics professor Philip C. Nelson has made the cover of the Biophysical Journal.
Titled "Tilting and Wobble of Myosin V by High-Speed Single-Molecule Polarized Fluorescence Microscopy," the paper, by John F. Beausang, Deborah Y. Shroder, Philip C. Nelson and Yale E. Goldman-- all based at the University of Pennsylvania-- outlines the manner by which Myosin V molecules navigate along actin chains.
The cover illustration is a reference to Robert Crumb's late 1960's poster "Keep On Truckin'."
