Cellular membrane proteins play important roles in cellular transport, signaling, and cell-to-cell communication. Malfunction in membrane proteins can lead to serious diseases, such as cancer. However ...

Located at the cellular interface, membrane proteins play critical regulatory roles in the signaling between a cell and its interacting environment, making them popular and ideal drug targets.

When a cell receives a message from outside, it generates a molecule called cyclic AMP (cAMP) to relay this message. To ensure the signal reaches the correct effector without triggering pathways ...

Protein sheaths encapsulate membrane proteins while preserving their structure and function making them easier to study ...

Membrane proteins are the gateway to cells and are involved in many critical functions. Each membrane protein is unique, and their complexity makes it difficult to fit into a standardized expression ...

David Baker’s research team at the Institute for Protein Design has unveiled a new technique for sequestering membrane ...

Researchers from Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf (HHU) have – in collaboration with colleagues from Ludwig Maximilian University (LMU) in Munich – analysed the complex biochemical processes by ...

Edward Lyman, associate professor in the departments of physics and astronomy, as well as chemistry and biochemistry, was recently published in the journal Nature Chemical Biology. The article, “When ...
