Transport of molecules within a cell and out of the cell requires a complex endomembrane system. Endocytosis occurs when the cell membrane engulfs particles (dark blue) outside the cell ...

The passage of these molecules relies on specific transport proteins embedded in the membrane. Membrane transport proteins are specific and selective for the molecules they move, and they often ...

The Membrane Transport Biology group are interested in the relationship between the structure and function of transport proteins in cellular membranes, and how this relates to human physiology and ...

The net movement of water from a region of high water concentration to a region of low water concentration through a selectively permeable membrane. This means osmosis is a special case of ...

The FDA has issued a Complete Response Letter to Telix Pharmaceuticals regarding the NDA for TLX101-CDx for the imaging of gliomas.

A more efficient and environmentally friendly approach to extracting rare earth elements that power everything from electric ...

It is shown here that for the cell model of the ion–exchange membrane, the Onsager principle of reciprocity is violated—the ...

This takes place when molecules diffuse across the cell membrane by travelling through specific transport proteins. It occurs down a concentration gradient - molecules move from an area of high to ...

A more efficient and environmentally friendly approach to extracting rare earth elements that power everything from electric vehicle batteries to smartphones could increase domestic supply and ...

We don’t know much about the regulation of endocytosis and cell-to-cell transport in the muco-ciliary epithelium of the upper respiratory tract. Viruses, on the other hand, know all about it. We use ...

Zhu Ying from Beihang University. "Our membrane not only enhances proton transport efficiency but also opens the door to converting industrial waste acid into electricity." This study highlights a ...
