| 【 Overview 】 |
Many biomolecules achieve their functions through dynamically changing their conformations. Behind such dynamics-function couplings, there exist exquisite mechanisms which utilize the softness of the molecules, and each of them is accompanied with a characteristic controlling factor. In this symposium, presentations will be given by young researchers from theory and experiment focusing on various factors connecting molecular softness with biological functions. Through the discussion over a breadth of examples, we pursue a universal concept underlying the role of softness in biological systems.
