created six specialized centers to work on difficult problems in protein structure, two were devoted to membrane proteins. These six centers are part of a much larger network of centers and ...

Low-density lipoproteins (LDL)—commonly known as bad cholesterol—have long been on scientists' radar as a major contributor ...

This gives them a rigid structure. Supports and strengthens cell? Cell membrane Selectively permeable double layer of lipid and protein molecules? All cell types ? Fluid enclosed by the cell ...

Studying them is challenging because the proteins must be embedded in lipid bilayers to retain their native structure. Many membrane proteins also require post-translational modifications ...

EPFL researchers have developed a computational method to explicitly consider the impact of water while designing membrane receptors with enhanced stability and signaling, paving the way for novel ...

The mitochondrial carrier SLC25A2 transports Pi across the mitochondrial inner membrane to support ATP synthesis ... such as those with drugs, lipids, and proteins, and their effects on transporter ...
