Coulomb interactions between cytoplasmic electric fields and phosphorylated messenger proteins optimize information flow in cells.
<h4>Background</h4>Normal cell function requires timely and accurate transmission of information from receptors on the cell membrane (CM) to the nucleus. Movement of messenger proteins in the cytoplasm is thought to be dependent on random walk. However, Brownian motion will disperse mess...
