| Abstract |
Various techniques have been developed and used to investigate how proteins produce complex biological architectures and phenomena. Among these techniques, high-speed atomic force microscopy (HS-AFM) holds a unique position. It is only HS-AFM that allows the simultaneous assessment of structure and dynamics of single protein molecules in action. This new microscopy tool has been successfully applied to a variety of proteins, from motor proteins to membrane proteins, antibodies, enzymes, and even to intrinsically disordered proteins. And yet there still remain many biomolecular phenomena that cannot be addressed by HS-AFM in its current form. Here, I present a brief history of HS-AFM development, describe the current state of HS-AFM, and then discuss which new biological scanning probe microscopy techniques will be coming up next. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 25 July 2023.
All research outputs
#14,121,551
of 24,145,400 outputs
Outputs from Biophysical Reviews
#229
of 840 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#219,959
of 447,770 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Biophysical Reviews
#20
of 52 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,145,400 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 40th percentile – i.e., 40% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 840 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.9. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 72% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 447,770 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 50% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 52 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 63% of its contemporaries.
