Making Beelines

With the injectable gel the researchers were able to grow electrodes in living tissue. Here it is tested on a microfabricated circuit.

Researchers grow electrodes in living brain tissue

The microprotein in the mitochondria (green) and in the nucleus (blue) was overexpressed in human cells. The yellow and pink areas show that the signal of the microprotein overlaps with the mitochondrial and nuclear signals.

Evolution: Miniproteins appeared “from nowhere”
