2023
The electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) is a biochemical procedure used to elucidate binding between proteins and nucleic acids. In this assay a radiolabeled nucleic acid and test protein are mixed. Binding is determined via gel electrophoresis which separates components based on mass, charge, and conformation. This video shows the concepts of EMSA and a general procedure, including gel and protein preparation, binding, electrophoresis, and detection. Applications covered in this video...

Persons infected with HIV are often frail, depressed and live a sedentary lifestyle for which conventional exercise is too taxing. Here, we present an exercise protocol that ameliorates aspects of frailty in HIV-infected persons. An exergame integrating cognitive control was developed using biosensors that measured balance, weight-shifting and obstacle crossing.

Ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) is an interesting complement to mass spectrometry for the characterization of biomolecules, notably because it is sensitive to isomerism. This protocol describes a tandem IMS (IMS/IMS) experiment, which allows the isolation of a molecule and the generation of the mobility profiles of its fragments.
FAQs
Controlled active movements let a person practice moving through a range while maintaining control, rather than treating range of motion as the only target. Stretching addresses soft-tissue flexibility, while strengthening and neuromuscular exercises support control across that range. Combining these elements can connect joint mobility with movement quality, which is important when restoring useful function.
Joint mechanics, soft-tissue flexibility, and coordination influence one another during movement. A limitation may therefore involve more than the amount a joint can move; the person must also control that motion during tasks. Mobility training targets these interacting features together, helping clinicians focus on whether improved range can be used for walking, lifting, or reaching.
Assessment helps determine which movement limitations matter for a person’s function and supports selection of an individualized program. The relevant goal is not simply a larger range of motion, but a usable range paired with functional control. This assessment-based approach can help align exercises with rehabilitation needs and with the activities the person is trying to regain.
A medically relevant program can begin with assessment of movement limitations, followed by a combination of controlled active movements, stretching, strengthening, and neuromuscular exercises. Clinicians use the resulting information to individualize rehabilitation rather than applying one identical routine. Attention to movement quality and functional control helps connect exercise selection with practical tasks.
After injury or surgery, clinicians may apply mobility training to restore movement and support recovery of activities such as walking, lifting, and reaching. Its role can be shaped around the specific movement limitation and the functional demands that matter in rehabilitation, allowing exercise selection to address both physical recovery and the person’s practical movement needs.
In musculoskeletal care, the method can serve several purposes across rehabilitation: addressing movement limitations, supporting physical function, contributing to injury-prevention efforts, and maintaining long-term physical health. The practical outcome is improved capacity for activities such as walking, lifting, or reaching, rather than considering range of motion in isolation from movement quality and control.
