New microscope allows scientists to track a functioning protein with atomic-level precision
This has allowed the researchers to watch RNAP to travel up the DNA strand and for the first time see exactly how transcription works. This currently has potential to affect the field of proteomics and protein folding study, and who knows what else down the line can be found for it.
