Scientists have developed a mathematical model describing the electrical properties of biological membranes when ions such as calcium, barium and strontium adsorb onto them at different pH levels.
The Journal of Cell Biology (JCB) is a not-for-profit publication, edited by scientists, and a leading life sciences journal. The JCB publishes papers on all aspects of cellular structure and function ...
AMES, Iowa – Nature has figured out how to make great membranes. Biological membranes let the right stuff into cells while keeping the wrong stuff out. And, as researchers noted in a paper just ...
(Nanowerk News) Scientists from the University of Groningen have developed a method that combines different resolution levels in a computer simulation of biological membranes. Their algorithm backmaps ...
The cell membrane is the cell's outermost line of defense against SARS-CoV-2, the novel coronavirus responsible for COVID-19 disease. Cell membranes are just a few nanometers thick but are essential ...
Within the past few years, models that can predict the structure or function of proteins have been widely used for a variety of biological applications, such as identifying drug targets and designing ...
