Molecular arrangement and conformation of lipids of relevance to membrane structure / S. Abrahamsson, B. Dahlén, H. Löfgren, I. Pascher and S. Sundell -- Energy conservation by proton transport ...

In every living cell, there are membranes—and in every membrane there are proteins, each of which acts as a chemical gatekeeper. Rather than passively letting ions pass in and out of the cell, these ...

Scientists have succeeded in controlling the structure and function of biological membranes with the help of 'DNA origami'. The system they developed may facilitate the transportation of large ...

After the process was completed, the purple membrane was nearly unchanged—only losing less than one nanometer in thickness. This proves that researchers can use this process to create patterns ...

Imagine drawing on something as delicate as a living cell -- without damaging it. Researchers have made this groundbreaking discovery using an unexpected combination of tools: frozen ethanol, electron ...
