In this important manuscript, the authors provide evidence for this mechanism in two different mechanically gated channels. The experiments were carried out in the same membranes, but the evidence is ...
Researchers have identified ancient proteins that may help explain how the first complex cells evolved from simpler ones over 15 billion years ago I ...
Membrane trafficking is the process by which proteins and other macromolecules are distributed throughout the cell, and released to or internalised from the extracellular space. Membrane ...
Integral membrane proteins carry out essential functions in the cell, and their activities are often modulated by specific protein-lipid interactions in the membrane. Here, we elucidate the intricate ...
The National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) is a competitive medical entrance examination in India for admission to undergraduate medical courses such as MBBS and BDS. Biology is often regarded ...
Advances in DNA nanotechnology now offer promising solutions. They allow the creation of novel transport channels that are large enough to facilitate the passage of therapeutic proteins across cell ...
