The cell membrane is a specialized environment, home to a variety of proteins that enable the cell to interact with its environment. One specific family of proteins, voltage-gated channels, are ...

The complex structure—depicted on the cover of Science—was determined in greater detail than that of any cell membrane channel yet described. The structure can help reveal the molecular basis of often ...
