Proteins are macromolecular machines central to virtually every fundamental biological function. Three-dimensional protein structures, determined by their amino acid composition, are directly linked to their function. Research into structure-function relat ...
In this manuscript, we studied the effect of additive manufacturing pretreatment on bacterial adhesion and inactivation on copper-based interfaces. Sandblasting, mirror polishing and Surface Mechanical Attrition Treatment (SMAT) at high or low energies hav ...
Phospholipid membranes surround the cell and its internal organelles, and their multicomponent nature allows the formation of domains that are important in cellular signalling, the immune system, and bacterial infection. Cytoplasmic compartments are also c ...
More than one fifth of the proteins encoded by the genome of Escherichia coli are destined to the bacterial cell envelope. Over the past 20 years, the mechanisms by which envelope proteins reach their three-dimensional structure have been intensively studi ...
Transient gene expression (TGE) from mammalian cells is an increasingly important tool for the rapid production of recombinant proteins for research applications in biochemistry, structural biology, and biomedicine. Here we review methods for the transfect ...
