Abstract: One of the major causes of antibiotic resistance in the Gram-negative bacteria is the low permeability across the outer membrane. Currently a main bottleneck in the development of effective antibiotics is the lack of a… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijms19030695
Abstract: Membrane channel proteins control the diffusion of ions across biological membranes. They are closely related to the processes of various organizational mechanisms, such as: cardiac impulse, muscle contraction and hormone secretion. Introducing a membrane region… read more here.
