New method of observing cell transport could inspire drug development

Membrane proteins are key targets for many drugs. Some of them, called transporters, move certain substances in and out of the cellular environment. Yet, extracting and storing them for observation is particularly complex. A team from the University of Geneva (UNIGE) in Switzerland, in collaboration with the University of Zurich (UZH), has developed an innovative […]
