Scientists have developed a membrane that can be tuned to selectively enhance or suppress ion flow, mimicking how living ...

With this, we could capture the dynamics of the transport process and visualise molecular details of how the transporter recognises and pushes the B 1 molecule across the cell membrane." ...

In every living cell, there are membranes, and in every membrane there are proteins, each of which acts as a chemical ...
