Living systems such as cells rely on membrane pores and channels to transport molecules, exchange signals, and organize ...

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, ...

A nanobody that stabilizes mutant CFTR from inside the cell, especially when combined with existing drugs, restores near-normal function in cystic fibrosis cells.

New technique to image single lipids: Lipids are notoriously difficult to detect with light microscopy. Using a new chemical labeling strategy, the Dresden team has overcome this limitation, enabling ...
