Since the discovery of the chloride ion channel ASOR three years ago, researchers have been searching for its biological functions. Now, the team led by Prof. Thomas Jentsch at the FMP and MDC in ...

Using pore radius calculations, Deng et al. showed how the central ion conduction pore contained multiple constrictions to prevent ion passage. The structure represented nonconductive conformation due ...

Laboratory cell experiments and computer simulations have revealed molecular mechanisms regulating a protein channel responsible for transporting chloride and other charged molecules across cell ...
