Living organisms share an ancestor called the last universal common ancestor, or LUCA. LUCA is estimated to have lived ...
Molecular dynamics simulations and free energy calculations of the self-assembly process of carbon nanotube porins reveal ...
In every living cell, there are membranes—and in every membrane there are proteins, each of which acts as a chemical gatekeeper. Rather than passively letting ions pass in and out of the cell, these ...
Cell membranes are the boundaries of living cells. They are made up of amphiphilic lipids, cholesterol, and membrane proteins arranged in a dynamic bilayer. They regulate signal transduction, ...
A revolution has occurred in the field of pharmaceutical development due to the development of drugs that target membrane proteins. It is estimated that one-third of currently available drugs target G ...
A new study by Professor José Villalaín, Chair of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the Miguel Hernández University of Elche (UMH), provides a detailed description of how nymphaeol A - a compound ...
Researchers led by UChicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering’s Chong Liu and Northwestern’s George Schatz have developed a tunable system that selectively controls chemical transport at the ...
