The chemistry of amino acid side chains is critical to protein structure because these side ... regions where the protein surface is exposed to membrane lipids. It is important to note, however ...

Scientists who model membrane structure and dynamics describe the membrane as a fluid mosaic in which transmembrane proteins can move laterally in the lipid bilayer. Therefore, the collection of ...

Purdue University scientists have discovered a key mechanism that regulates how plants develop chloroplasts, essential ...

Most drugs target membrane proteins, accessible on the surface of cells, to alter the transport of ions and molecules and the transduction of cellular signals. The Diver lab explores the biological ...

In LLPS, liquid condensates—or membrane-less organelles—that are enriched in specific protein-protein or protein ...

This process occurs through membrane protein complexes that provide necessary channels for the movement of proteins. In bacteria, a group of proteins forms the SecYEG-SecA complex, which helps ...

Nano-pore structural control technology enhances recovery rates and concentration ratios for proteins and polysaccharides with a broader range of molecular weights to streamline processes.
