Researchers combined advanced imaging techniques and theoretical physics to observe and explain how nanoclusters of the protein emerin form inside living cells. The study uncovers the molecular ‘rules’ driving the arrangement of emerin into nanoclusters and the mechanisms leading to their defective assembly in people with muscular dystrophy.
