Cell membranes contain a large variety of lipid types and are crowded with proteins,
endowing them with the plasticity needed to fulfill their key roles in cell functioning. The …

Membrane lipids interact with proteins in a variety of ways, ranging from providing a stable
membrane environment for proteins to being embedded in to detailed roles in complicated …

Biological membranes are tricky to investigate. They are complex in terms of molecular
composition and structure, functional over a wide range of time scales, and characterized by …

The cellular membrane constitutes one of the most fundamental compartments of a living
cell, where key processes such as selective transport of material and exchange of …

Behaviour change techniques describe the content of behaviour change interventions, but
do not adequately account for the actions that people must themselves undertake to …

Focal adhesions (FAs) are protein machineries essential for cell adhesion, migration, and
differentiation. Talin is an integrin-activating and tension-sensing FA component directly …

In the almost 70 years since the first hints of its existence, the phosphoinositide,
phosphatidyl-D-myo-inositol 4, 5-bisphosphate has been found to be central in the …

Membrane protrusion and adhesion to the extracellular matrix, which involves the extension
of actin filaments and formation of adhesion complexes, are the fundamental processes for …

Synaptic neurotransmission is generally considered as a function of membrane-embedded
receptors and ion channels in response to the neurotransmitter (NT) release and binding …

We review the use of molecular dynamics (MD) simulation as a drug design tool in the
context of the role that the lipid membrane can play in drug action, ie, the interaction …
