In each, the monomers consist of a TM domain that contains the voltage sensor and pore functionalities, and a C-terminal domain (CTD) that may have a role in assembly of the tetrameric channels 5, 6.

However, such functional leaps by combination of unrelated domains have not been directly demonstrated. Here we show that highly specific and complex protein functions can be generated by joining a ...

Hsp70 chaperone systems are very versatile machines present in nearly all living organisms and in nearly all intracellular compartments. They function in many fundamental processes through their ...

Quantum annealing (QA) can be competitive to classical algorithms in optimizing continuous-variable functions when running on appropriate hardware, show researchers from Tokyo Tech. By comparing ...
