The Inner Life of a Cell

One word: fascinating. And then some more: I’m especially fascinated by the thing that seems like it’s walking. Apparently, this is a pretty accurate view of what’s going on in our cells right now:

I’ve been in the medical animation field for seven years now, so I’m a little jaded, but I still get surprised by things. For instance, in the animation there’s a motor protein that’s sort of walking along a line, carrying this round sphere of lipids. When I started working on that section I admit I was kind of surprised to see that it really does look like it’s out for a stroll, like a character in a science fiction film or animation. But based on all the data, it’s a completely accurate rendering.
