Researchers at Leipzig University and TU Dresden have succeeded in developing biological switches that can selectively turn ion channels on and off using light pulses. Initial applications show that ...

Scientists have identified the role of an ion channel that plays a key part in how cells break down and recycle components, a discovery that could open the door to new treatment strategies for ...

Lysosomes are the recycling centers of human cells. Larger molecules are broken down inside the membrane-enclosed vesicles. Malfunctions can lead to neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's.

Researchers decipher the function of an ion channel involved in cellular degradation processes and create new possibilities for Parkinson’s therapies.

BK and CaV1.3 channels interact early during biogenesis, assembling intracellularly before membrane localization, indicating coordinated processes for functional coupling.

Water deficit during flowering can severely disrupt petal expansion, water uptake, and reproductive success, yet many plants are able to recover rapidly once water becomes available again. This study ...

The present paper is a review of the mitochondrial Voltage Dependent Anion Channel (VDAC), popularly known as mitochondrial porin, which is a protein that forms a passive diffusion ion channel across ...

A rendering of the team’s artificial channels. These nanoscale structures mimic the selective ion transport of natural membrane proteins, acting as precise gatekeepers that allow specific rare earth ...
