Researchers have identified a crucial ion channel, TMEM175, that acts like an overflow valve in the cell’s recycling system. It regulates acidity inside lysosomes, ensuring they function properly.

Summary: For the brain to stay calm, specific potassium channels called KCNQ2/3 must act as “brakes” to prevent neurons from over-firing. However, researchers discovered a surprising catch: these ...

Coupling of KCNQ2/3 functionality to localization. We demonstrated that while normal KCNQ2/3 (left) is strongly enriched at the AIS, dysfunctional KCNQ2/3 (right) shows a significant reduction in AIS ...

Scientists have uncovered how a long-mysterious ion channel helps cells regulate the acidity of their internal recycling centers. By acting as a kind of molecular safety valve, this mechanism appears ...

When a scrappy team of scientists joined forces in the late 1990s, they sought to identify genetic mutations that could have an outsized impact on the treatment of human disease. At the time, that ...
