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.
Integral membrane proteins carry out essential functions in the cell, and their activities are often modulated by specific protein-lipid interactions in the membrane. Here, we elucidate the intricate ...
La Trobe University researchers have identified a protein that is integral to gut health, providing an important lead in the search for a treatment for people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
