Our cells' membranes have many functions. They not only provide mechanical protection but also precisely control which ...

Researchers from the Göttingen Cluster of Excellence Multiscale Bioimaging (MBExC) have uncovered the 3D structure of the membrane proteins myoferlin and dysferlin using high-resolution cryo-electron ...

Cell membranes protect and organize cells. All cells have an outer plasma membrane that regulates not only what enters the cell, but also how much of any given substance comes in. Unlike prokaryotes, ...

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 ...

Researchers have been elucidating the structures of complex molecules for more than 100 years using a variety of techniques.

Hydrogen fuel cells are a promising clean-energy technology with the potential to reduce pollution and greenhouse gas ...
