DOE Highlight: Protein Dynamics on Mineral Surfaces

The recent PNAS paper by Dr. Shuai Zhang and colleagues on the rotational dynamics of proteins on mineral surfaces was featured in the CommUnique bulletin from the Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science. This work was partly funded by the Office’s Center for the Science of Synthesis Across Scales (CSSAS), an Energy Frontier Research Center (EFRC) established in 2018.
