Physiological environment induce quick response - slow exhaustion reactions

Physiological environment induce quick response - slow exhaustion reactions

In vivo environments are highly crowded and inhomogeneous, which may affect reaction processes in cells. In this study we examined the effects of intracellular crowding and an inhomogeneity on the behavior of in vivo reactions by calculating the spectral dimension (ds), which can be translated into...
