A molecular movie has captured in detail the process of an anion transported across the cell membrane by a light-fuelled protein pump. Researchers have unravelled the mystery of how light energy ...

Chloride channels and antiport mechanisms are pivotal for maintaining cellular ion homeostasis and regulating physiological processes such as muscle contraction, epithelial fluid transport and ...

In the cells of the Arabidopsis plant, exposure to sodium chloride (NaCl) induces the movement (translocation) of the green fluorescent protein (GFP) tagged chloride channel, GFP-AtCLCf, from the ...

In the human body the salt content of cells and their surrounding is regulated by sophisticated transport systems. Special channels in the cell membrane selectively permit salt ions to flow in and out ...

Fluoride-ion and chloride-ion battery technologies have emerged as promising alternatives to conventional lithium‐ion systems, underpinned by the potential for high energy density and the utilisation ...

Although local defects in chloride-iodide-based perovskite are hard to avoid due to ion migration, a group of scientists have now found a way to passivate them. They used different combinations of ...

Many bacteria and unicellular algae have light-driven pumps in their cell membranes: proteins that change shape when exposed to photons such that they can transport charged atoms in or out of the cell ...
