The field of optogenetics has revolutionised our ability to manipulate neuronal circuits by harnessing light-sensitive ion channels to control cellular activity with unprecedented precision. At its ...
A member of an important class of ion channel proteins can transiently rearrange itself into a larger structure with dramatically altered properties, according to a study led by researchers at Weill ...
A member of an important class of ion channel proteins can transiently rearrange itself into a larger structure with dramatically altered properties, according to a new study. The discovery is a ...
The immune regulatory protein STING has a previously unknown function: acting as an ion channel that allows protons to leak into cells. This discovery makes it the first human immune sensor that can ...
RIT biomedical engineering researchers identify a protein that can reduce fibrosis and slow disease progression.
HHMI researchers discover a new ion channel that is found only in the tails of spermatozoa. An ion channel protein that plays a central role in sperm motility could be an enticing target for a new ...
Study: ‘Suicidal’ mechanism discovered in ion channel receptors enables the sensing of heat and pain
BUFFALO, N.Y. – The ability to accurately detect heat and pain is critical to human survival, but scientists have struggled to understand on a molecular level exactly how our bodies sense these ...
