Scientists have identified the role of an ion channel that plays a key part in how cells break down and recycle components, a ...
Lysosomes are the recycling centers of human cells. Larger molecules are broken down inside the membrane-enclosed vesicles. Malfunctions can lead to neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's.
Researchers at Northwestern University have discovered a concealed molecular "control switch" within a protein that plays a ...
Researchers decipher the function of an ion channel involved in cellular degradation processes and create new possibilities for Parkinson’s therapies.
