The upper size limit on cell-penetrating drug molecules may be much higher than medicinal chemists had thought. A research team reports that molecules believed to be much too large to diffuse across ...

Researchers study how DNA nanopores (DNPs) interact with low-curvature supported lipid bilayers over time. Using QCM-D, the study tracks diffusion, aggregation, and incorporation of DNPs, highlighting ...

Cell membranes are the boundaries of living cells. They are made up of amphiphilic lipids, cholesterol, and membrane proteins arranged in a dynamic bilayer. They regulate signal transduction, ...

Membrane proteins are vital for cellular signaling, transport, and communication, making them attractive drug targets despite their challenging properties. Advances in mass spectrometry have enabled ...
