Structure of E. coli cytoplasm and impact of perceived viscosity on the lateral diffusion of proteins (red particles). The schematic also shows enhanced crowding at the poles, the impact of confinement on molecule diffusion, and the fluidization of the cytoplasm by metabolic activity, which are determining factors of the structure and dynamics of the cytoplasm. Modified after Smigiel et al. 2022.
