David Baker’s research team at the Institute for Protein Design has unveiled a new technique for sequestering membrane ...

The Noelin family of secreted proteins bind to the external portion of AMPA glutamate receptors and stabilize them on the neuronal cellular membrane, a process necessary for transmission of ...

Proteins are widely exploited as emulsifying agents due to their amphiphilic nature, allowing them to adsorb at oil–water interfaces and form stabilising layers around dispersed droplets. The ...

To withstand external mechanical stress and handle trafficking of various substances, a cell needs to adjust its surrounding membrane. This is done through small indentations on the cell surface ...

Outrun Therapeutics has launched with $10 million in seed financing. The company spun out of Satpal Virdee’s lab at the University of Dundee and is focused on stabilizing proteins, or keeping ...

Biologists have long known that amino acids can help stabilize proteins, for example as additives to pharmaceutical formulations. In trying to understand why this works, EPFL and MIT researchers have ...
