The roadway is in aquaporins, a class of proteins that form trans-membrane channels in cell walls in all forms of life. They allow for water movement between the cell and its environment.

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 ...

Nearly a third of all proteins in living beings are firmly embedded in a biomembrane – either in a cell’s outer membrane or in the boundaries of internal cellular compartments. There, these membrane ...

Scientists have revealed the secret to the structural integrity of tiny particles that transport cargo from cell to cell through blood vessels and bodily fluids: special proteins that keep their ...

The cell membrane forms a barrier for the negatively charged chloride, ... They want to find out in which cell the channel protein is expressed and where exactly it is localized within the cells.

To selectively kill cancer cells, target a protein channel in the cell's lysosome, study suggests. by University of Michigan. ... across the lysosome membrane and into the cell.

The DNA constructions behave much in the manner of natural cell channels or pores, offering selective transport of ions, proteins, and other cargo, with enhanced features unavailable in their ...
