You'll find below your Membrane’s Digest. Week after week, breakthroughs pile up, from generative sampling breaking the timescales barrier in MD conformational transitions to MPs emerging as biomarkers and resistance determinants in triple-negative breast cancer. A wealth of exciting papers to fill your week (and if you need a laugh, the Ig Nobels remind us that even cockroach milk and splash-free urinals have their place in the spotlight) !

This week’s Membrane’s Digest, covers all aspects : from structure to chemistry, and from bugs and to general matters … hopefully interesting to all, not only MP fans.

Dear all, After one month slowly catching up with delayed literature, the Membrane’s Digest is back in its regular format… and what an amazing line-up we have! Innovations, new concepts, and new tools, all at the service of membrane protein advances, with promising openings towards Antibiotic Resistance, Cystic fibrosis, Alzheimer’s disease, and Cancer. Truly, an amazing time to work in science. Cherry on top: a shoutout to the one and only 🎸🔫🥀🎩 (do you have the ref. ?):

Hi all, This edition of the Membrane Digest is packed with a dense but (hopefully!) interesting mix: efflux pumps, artificial membranes, a pinch of photoswitchable lipids, and a dash of sci-fi and polar-themed miscellany. Grab your popcorn ?: lights, camera ?️, action ? !

Where spotlight is put on the molecular determinants behind MP / membrane binding of substrates, inhibitors and modulators. Structure / function at its best … Gold medal to all authors ! ?⛷️⛸️??

Grab a cup of coffee (or tea) and enjoy a MD-doped membrane digest : let’s dive into the complexity of membranes and their effects on membrane proteins !

A special edition of the Membrane’s Digest. Below, you’ll find highlights from a recent Methods in Enzymology issue that consolidates contributions from researchers across disciplines. It provides a thorough compilation of protocols, theoretical insights, and innovative methods for studying efflux pumps. Kudos to Ben Luisi for leading this effort : this edition is a practical resource for scientists in biochemistry, structural biology, and related fields.

in this week's digest, a symphony of articles where MPs compose the cellular soundtrack within membranes !

After a couple of month of hibernation like a marmotte (;-D), the Membrane’s Digest is back … This week, how Proteins Bend, Bind, and Move Their Shapes to Rule Life (and Maybe Even kiss ?)

Au menu ce soir: Red Bull (taurine), Oyster, Rice and Miso => all the ingredients reunited for a shoot of euphoric dopaminergic spikes !
