An interdisciplinary research team of the Institutes of Physical Chemistry and Physics of the University of Freiburg and the Max Planck Institute of Biophysics in Frankfurt-am-Main has discovered a new, direction-dependent friction in proteins called anisotropic friction. "Until now, nobody had observed that friction in biomolecules was dependent on direction," says physicist Dr. Steffen Wolf of the University of Freiburg. The results have been published as cover story in the scientific journal "Nano Letters."
