Cholesterol-dependent cytolysins (CDCs) are a large family of secreted bacterial pore-forming toxins that specifically bind cholesterol-containing mammalian membranes 1. Although the pore size ...

Imagine a world where rooms are lit by their walls, clothes are smartphones and windows turn into video screens. That may seem like a bit of science fiction, but not for long. Researchers at MIT are ...

Severe acute respiratory syndrome virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the causative agent of coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19), uses its spike (S) glycoprotein to enter host cells. The S glycoprotein consists of ...

Researchers of the Center for Photonics and Two-Dimensional Materials at MIPT, together with their colleagues from Spain, Great Britain, Sweden, and Singapore, including co-creator of the world's ...

Dsb proteins control the formation and rearrangement of disulfide bonds during the folding of secreted and membrane proteins in bacteria. DsbG, a member of this family, has disulfide bond isomerase ...

Scientists have developed a new process to structure surfaces and to apply or detach functional molecules. They use UV light for the formation or breaking of so-called disulfide bridges, i.e. bonds of ...
