Transmembrane helical interactions in the CFTR channel pore.
Mutations in the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) gene affect CFTR protein biogenesis or its function as a chloride channel, resulting in dysregulation of epithelial fluid transport in the lung, pancreas and other organs in ...

INVESTIGATIONS ON THE EFFECT OF SODIUM TRIMETAPHOSPHATE AND SODIUM SULFATE CONCENTRATIONS ON THE PROPERTIES OF CROSS-LINKED CASSAVA STARCH FILMS [PDF]
Films based on pure native starch have limited applications, are easily breakable, very hygroscopic, and permeable to water vapor. One method for improving these properties is to modify starch by cross-linking.
