DOI: 10.1007/s00294-019-00979-7
Abstract: Mitochondrial biogenesis and functions rely on transport of their resident proteins as well as small molecules/ions across their membranes. The TOM complex functions as a protein entry gate for most mitochondrial proteins and mitochondrial porin… read more here.

DOI: 10.1039/c7mb00239d
Abstract: Irreversible denaturation of membrane proteins in detergent solutions is similar to unfolding of water-soluble multidomain proteins and represents a complex, multistage process. Pore-forming proteins of Gram-negative bacteria are heat-modifiable proteins, i.e., proteins altering their molecular… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/21505594.2023.2215602
Abstract: BACKGROUND Mycobacterium abscessus subspecies massiliense (M. massiliense) is increasingly recognized as an emerging bacterial pathogen, particularly in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients and CF centers' respiratory outbreaks. We characterized genomic and phenotypic changes in 15 serial… read more here.

DOI: 10.1139/cjm-2016-0764
Abstract: Mitochondrial porin, which forms voltage-dependent anion-selective channels (VDAC) in the outer membrane, can be folded into a 19-β-stranded barrel. The N terminus of the protein is external to the barrel and contains α-helical structure. Targeted… read more here.
