Not surprisingly, protein functions are as diverse as protein structures. For example, structural proteins maintain cell shape, akin to a skeleton, and they compose structural elements in ...

"Large-scale protein-protein interactions within the cell membrane are an area that the community is just starting to embrace and appreciate the importance of, so we are well positioned to ...

Profilee Satyajit Mayor discusses his explorations of cell membranes, which are helping to update the classical fluid mosaic model of dynamic cellular boundaries. A series of rodent experiments showed ...

This expanded capability enables the expression, purification and stabilization of challenging membrane proteins, which are often key targets in therapeutic development. Using cell-free protein ...

This takes place when molecules diffuse across the cell membrane by travelling through specific transport proteins. It occurs down a concentration gradient - molecules move from an area of high to ...

Previously unknown access points in cell membrane proteins have ... at atomic scale and in real time, how membrane lipids interact with G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) in their natural ...

Transport across membranes All cells are enclosed by a cell membrane, which is selectively permeable. Molecules can move into or out of cells by diffusion and active transport. Cells can gain or ...
