- International team of researchers discovered the first fractal molecule in nature.
- They discovered a microbial enzyme - citrate synthase from a cyanobacterium.
- It spontaneously assembles into a pattern known as the Sierpinski triangle.
- Their individual parts resemble the shape of the whole structure.
- Such shapes, which repeat from the largest to the smallest, are called fractals.
- Sierpiński triangle is an infinitely repeating series of triangles made up of smaller triangles.
