A new computational study led by University at Buffalo scientists and published April 21 in Biophysical Journal sheds light ...

Membranes define the boundaries of cells and their major organelles, enabling cellular compartmentalization that is essential for cell function. Membranes are also signalling platforms that mediate ...

Lipid bilayers in mammalian membranes can have a more asymmetric composition than previously thought, new research shows. This lipid abundance asymmetry is enabled by the unique properties of ...

From the fluid mosaic model to tight junctions, cell membranes are the ultimate gatekeepers of life. They manage what comes in and out, maintain balance, and even signal to other cells. Understanding ...

Within the expanding landscape of short bioactive peptides, ABP-7 is believed to occupy a distinctive conceptual niche.
