On the Mysterious Propulsion of Synechococcus

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
We propose a model for the self-propulsion of the marine bacterium Synechococcus utilizing a continuous looped helical track analogous to that found in Myxobacteria [1]. In our model cargo-carrying protein motors, driven by proton-motive force, move along a continuous looped helical track.

Intrinsic enzymatic properties modulate the self-propulsion of micromotors

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Bio-catalytic micro- and nanomotors self-propel by the enzymatic conversion of substrates into products. Despite the advances in the field, the fundamental aspects underlying enzyme-powered self-propulsion have rarely been studied.

Nuclear Propulsion

open access: yes, 2023
Nuclear propulsion utilizes nuclear reactions to produce energy, which is then used to propel a vehicle. There are three main forms of nuclear propulsion: naval nuclear propulsion, aero-nuclear propulsion, and space nuclear propulsion. Naval nuclear propulsion involves the use of nuclear reactors to power ships.
