Several membrane proteins use this electric field to regulate the function of the cell and to harness the membrane electric field, so the embedded membrane proteins must sense changes in this field.

The spike glycoprotein of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the first point of contact for the virus to recognize and bind to host receptors, is the focus of biomedical ...

Our results reveal that the SARS-CoV-2 S protein is an O-glycoprotein; the O-glycosites and O-glycan compositions vary with the host cell type. These comprehensive O-glycosylation landscapes of the S ...

Post-translational modifications are an essential process for proper protein function and localization. In particular, lipid modification plays a crucial role in the spatial regulation of proteins ...
