An electric molecular motor. [PDF]
AbstractMacroscopic electric motors continue to have a large impact on almost every aspect of modern society. Consequently, the effort towards developing molecular motors1–3 that can be driven by electricity could not be more timely. Here we describe an electric molecular motor based on a [3]catenane4,5, in which two cyclobis(paraquat-p-phenylene)6 ...

Artificial molecular motors [PDF]
Artificial molecular motors take inspiration from motor proteins, nature's solution for achieving directional molecular level motion. An overview is given of the principal designs of artificial molecular motors and their modes of operation. We identify some key challenges remaining in the field.

Synthetische moleculaire motoren zijn moleculaire motoren die kunnen roteren door invloed van een energetische stimulans; bij lichtaangedreven moleculaire rotoren is dit licht. Dit onderzoek richtte zich op synthetische lichtaangedreven éénrichtingsroterende moleculaire motoren gebaseerd op overpopulatie van alkenen die fotoisomerisaties ondergaan ...

Photoactivated Artificial Molecular Motors
Accurate control of long-range motion at the molecular scale holds great potential for the development of ground-breaking applications in energy storage and bionanotechnology. The past decade has seen tremendous development in this area, with a focus on the directional operation away from thermal equilibrium, giving rise to tailored man-made molecular ...

Molecular Motors: Dynein's Gearbox [PDF]
A new optical trapping study shows that the stepsize of cytoplasmic dynein varies according to the applied force, suggesting that this motor can change gear. Complementary biochemical kinetic work on yeast dynein mutants hints at the allosteric mechanisms involved.
