BK and CaV1.3 channels interact early during biogenesis, assembling intracellularly before membrane localization, indicating ...

A novel method for studying how one crucial membrane protein functions may pave the way for a new kind of broad-spectrum antibiotic. Almost all bacteria rely on the same emergency valves -- protein ...

For decades it was assumed that protein channels and protein pumps fulfilled completely different functions and worked independently of each other. Researchers have now elucidated the transport path ...

Laboratory cell experiments and computer simulations have revealed molecular mechanisms regulating a protein channel responsible for transporting chloride and other charged molecules across cell ...
