A Florida State University computational scientist is paving the way for future medical breakthroughs by developing ...

In a new Nature Communications study, scientists have developed a novel method for artificial cells to interact with their external environment without the need for complex modification processes.

How large, fully folded proteins can pass through cell membranes without destroying them has long been one of the open ...

The molecular mechanisms underlying the transport of influenza A virus (IAV) membrane proteins to the cell surface remain largely unclear. In this study, siRNA screening identifies Rab27a as a ...

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, ...

Using an innovative combination of biochemical experiments and ultra-high-resolution microscopy, a research team at Kiel ...

Researchers shifted the focus to the internal properties of the membrane itself, specifically its viscosity, highlighting its critical role in controlling deformation and dynamics during essential ...
