Researchers have developed a nanoparticle technology that can be used to stabilize membrane proteins so that their structure can be studied in a lipid environment. The method makes it possible to ...
Figure 1: The mechanosensitive channel of large conductance (MscL) resists unfolding in the presence of lipids. Figure 2: AqpZ is indiscriminately stabilized by lipids with the exception of ...
A new study presents computational strategies to manipulate membrane protein folding and function for biotechnological applications.
Researchers have struggled to explain the molecular structure of proton exchange membranes, the key component in hydrogen fuel cells. Researchers have developed a model that explains how the membrane ...
Mitochondria are cell organelles surrounded by a double membrane. In addition to numerous essential functions in the metabolism of the cell, they also play a key role in the integration of signals ...
Inosine diphosphatase bound to Golgi membranes was studied in rice (Oryza sativa L. cv Nipponkai) cells. The enzyme was solubilized with Triton X-100 from isolated rice Golgi membranes and was highly ...
The laboratory of Ege Kavalali, professor and chair of the Department of Pharmacology, published a paper in Nature ...
While prokaryotic cells do not have membrane-bound structures, they do have distinct cellular regions (Figure 1). In prokaryotic cells, DNA bundles together in a region called the nucleoid. Primitive ...
The Golgi body (or Golgi complex, apparatus), and Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) are both organelles found in the majority of eukaryotic cells. They are very closely associated and show both similarities ...
Water transport in conifers occurs through single-celled tracheids that are connected to one another via intertracheid pit membranes. These membranes have two components: the porous margo, which ...
