Interesting spotlights on MP folding and on the effect of hydrophobic mismatch on their organization and sorting within membranes: MP step out of their confort zone !
Major methodological breakthroughs (trick to stain SDS PAGE in a blink, major update of AlphaFold, ...) as well as inspiring structure / function studies with a pinch of lipid here and there ... Once again, a fine vintage for the membrane digest !
A slightly shorter delivery than usual, but no less interesting! Have a nice reading,
Pirates, Vampires and Alien-like bacteria colonizing the ISS … It’s Haloween or what ?
A bitter sweet symphonie (that's life) of super cool membrane-related papers !
From toxin translocation to cryotomo of MDa complexes, the membrane’s digest is once again multi scale !
You’ll find enclosed the weekly membrane digest. Watch out: avalanche of articles ahead ! Have a nice week,
Please find below the membrane digest. ABC transporters, MscS and nanodiscs are under the spotlight, as well as improvements for beer flavour and a provocative suggestion to combat climate change. Have a nice reading !
You’ll find below, among other inspiring works, structural enzymology, design of soluble functional analogues of MPs, MIC-derived SAR of EPI and snake burgers. Have a nice week,
CryoEM now turning time-resolved, de novo artificial MPs complementing functions in mammalian cells, DNA-based methodologies to tackle MP partitioning or dimerization, Mammouths on their way back to life, à-la-Jurassic Park, and much more … Exciting times in Science !
