Proteins regulate a wide range of biological processes inside and outside cells by binding to specific molecular partners. In recent years, short peptides that can selectively recognize ...
Using cryo-electron microscopy and mass spectrometry, researchers from PSI have deciphered the structure of an ion channel found in the eye while it interacts with the protein calmodulin—a structure ...
Calmodulin-binding peptide (CBP) binds calmodulin in the presence of calcium ions but recognizes human midkine in the presence of sodium ions. These findings suggest that CBP functions as a natural ...
