Membrane proteins are proteins found in cell membranes, either at the surface or on intracellular organelles. Integral membrane proteins such as receptors and ion channels span the membrane.

A more efficient and environmentally friendly approach to extracting rare earth elements that power everything from electric ...

New research challenges the view that proteins are the only key to evolution, highlighting the importance of lipids.

myosin proteins tug on the red blood cell’s cytoskeletal membrane, creating a divot at the center. Back in the 1980s, when Fowler started working with red blood cells, it wasn’t clear whether they ...

Lysophospholipids directly and reversibly activate pannexin channels, triggering the release of signaling molecules critical for inflammation.

The STING protein, known for helping cells fight viral infections ... by transporting pH-lowering protons across the membrane. Opening this channel on acidic vesicles releases protons, increasing ...
