SNX9 contains a BAR domain that is known to facilitate membrane bending 53. Such studies start to resolve the long-elusive molecular links between actin, its assembly and membrane functions.

An asymmetric distribution of phospholipids in the membrane bilayer is inseparable from physiological functions, including shape preservation and survival of erythrocytes, and by implication other ...

In response to exogenous stress or an unknown cellular signal, membrane-bound CisA either directly or indirectly mediates the association of free-floating CIS Sc particles with the cytoplasmic ...

Building genetically programmed synthetic cell systems by molecular integration is a powerful and effective approach to capture the synergies between biomolecules when they are put together. In this ...

Laboratory results showed that the venom could inhibit tumor growth and trigger cell death, with limited impact on healthy cells. Components such as hyaluronidases and peptides like chlorotoxin, which ...
