- I'm looking for an in depth understanding of chemotaxis
I recently saw a video online of a white blood cell taking out a bacterium. This engaged my curiosity and I wanted to know why the WBC and bacterium behave the way they do. I learned about chemotaxis, but none of the explanations I have found satisfy my curiosity. What exactly is happening between the receptors and attractants/repellents? Why does the attractant or repellent cause the receptor to behave in a certain way?
