Structural Metrics Predict Site-Specific Evolutionary Rate in Membrane Bound Proteins [PDF]
, 2016 Membrane proteins are involved in many critical biological processes and mutations are linked to various diseases. We examined how the properties of the location of an amino acid residue within the protein structure dictates the rate at which it evolves.

The Influence of Permeability through Bacterial Porins in Whole-Cell Compound Accumulation
Antibiotics, 2021 The lack of new drugs for Gram-negative pathogens is a global threat to modern medicine. The complexity of their cell envelope, with an additional outer membrane, hinders internal accumulation and thus, the access of molecules to their targets.

Solute channels of the outer membrane: from bacteria to chloroplasts [PDF]
, 2007 Chloroplasts, unique organelles of plants, originated from endosymbiosis of an ancestor of today's cyanobacteria with a mitochondria-containing host cell. It is assumed that the outer envelope membrane, which delimits the chloroplast from the surrounding
